So lovely. A warm man, in the icy changes of the times, seems so small, yet so majestic. A samurai of the last generation who is indifferent to fame and fortune, guarding a poor family, a demented mother, and a young daughter. Pengjiang, a childhood sweetheart, is gentle and wise. She didn't dare to confide in the male protagonist, but said to the old mother, I am your son's childhood sweetheart playmate, and that moment was touching. The final samurai duel is a classic of Japanese sword and halberd movies. He didn't pretend to be cool, but expressed his confusion, arrogance, and helplessness against both sides. In fact, they stand on their own positions and are loyal. It is the times that have caused personal tragedy. Finally, when the male protagonist returns home, the scene where Pengjiang meets him is the baptism of life and death. What is love, probably this is it. Although they only experienced three short years of happiness, it was a lifetime of happiness. The play also restores many details of Japanese people's livelihood at that time. Celebrations, food, daily life, etiquette... a good work.
