wonderfully touched

Recently, the conflict in the Ukrainian incident has intensified. By chance, I thought of "The Assassination of the First Emperor", which I had never watched, and I recalled some pictures of "Qin Song" intermittently, so I found "Qin Song" and watched it, and then this "Shadow Warrior" .

The shadow is a human being, but not a human being. The growth of the shadow and his changes add a sense of humanistic realism to the mechanical rules of the empire. He is the shadow, the cogwheel of the empire, and a human being. Ying Zheng in Shi Huangdi's assassination also made me feel this way, they were all being urged to go, and they couldn't help themselves. When the shadow decides to play the protagonist, the shadow is already dead; but the shadow seems to be alive again, becoming the protagonist, becoming a symbol, which is contradictory again. The shadow is moved by the protagonist and is willing to be the shadow, but the shadow does not want to be completely It's the shadow, and the shadow wants to be himself. Use the people around you to speak the shadow's heart, "it is difficult to live as another person", "what will the shadow think after the completion of the 3-year task", and the end also tells us that the shadow has become a human being, a human being Shadow is made.

    After becoming a substitute, the relationship with his son, wives, military officials, etc. can be compared with Takashi Ichiro's "Shadow Warrior", and the latter should be somewhat affected. The dream in the middle of the film is really gorgeous.

    Zhang Yimou’s shadow tells the story of the shadow, Kurosawa Akira’s shadow tells the story of the real body. Compared with the fate reflected by the retainers, concubines, descendants and enemies, Zhang Yimou’s crappy love and family drama is particularly lame and superficial. Up

Kagemusha quotes

  • Nobukado Takeda: I know it is difficult. I was for a long time the lord's double. It was torture. It is not easy to suppress yourself to become another. Often I wanted to be myself and free. But now I think this was selfish of me. The shadow of a man can never desert that man. I was my brother's shadow. Now that I have lost him, it is as though I am nothing.

  • [the double's aides are worried that others will find out he is an impostor]

    Masakage Yamagata: Little Takemaru was a problem, but the horse is worse. It can tell. Only the late lord could ride it.

    Nobufusa Baba: If the double falls off, everyone will suspect.

    Nobukado Takeda: Lord Shingen has been ill. He must refrain from riding.

    Masakage Yamagata: Good idea.

    Masatane Hara: There are many other problems. We must be careful to keep the late lord's intentions.

    Katsusuke Atobe: Tonight he will have to meet the late lord's mistresses. How will he be with them?

    Masakage Yamagata: Our master has been ill. He must refrain from riding.
