The doctor is kind.
The red beard is wise and brave, does not fear the power and pity the poor, set an example to move to protect the capital, to protect the capital touched otoyo, otoyo touched the helpers. . .
Onoyo repeatedly knocked over the potion, and was finally moved by the patience of the bad boy and the break-even. He sympathized with the thief chobo, and then shouted chobo to the bottom of the well with his helper, and it was moving! Chobo spit out the poison and it will be fine. It looks like a magical superstition, but it is actually the director's mercy!
Poverty is a sin, and sickness lies in the body and the heart. If it is rare to see a doctor like Red Beard, there are many cases in the film that cannot be treated normally because of poverty. Director Akira Kurosawa reflected in the movie his deep sympathy and pity for the poor.
He wounded the brothel thugs to treat them, and said that the doctors could not fight, which had a comedic effect. This is rare in Kurosawa's always serious movies.
Although it is three hours, if you can watch it patiently, the plot is very delicate and touching. Pay attention to character etiquette, actions and hand styles, etc. It is not difficult to find that the details are quite thoughtful. The plot and composition before and after the meal are reflected, but the characters' thoughts have completely reversed and changed, giving the audience a more vivid shock! Director Kurosawa has always been known for his perfect composition, and the film is no exception.

    "Redbeard" is 3 hours long and is a 1965 film by Akira Kurosawa. Although it is still a story from the shogunate period, it is no longer a matter of rivers and lakes, but tells the story of a doctor with a red beard. The actor of the red beard is still Akira Kurosawa's Queen Mikawa Toshiro. Although it is a doctor's story, it is not a disease, but a folk affliction. The real disease behind each patient is a chronic disease of society. Kurosawa is full of love for this world

    This time it's a hospital theme. . Still a decent shot. . Facing the death of a patient is unforgettable. . Akira Kurosawa is simply a genius in a multi-faceted hand.

Red Beard quotes

  • Dr. Kyojô Niide: Your daughter's more and more sane now. That's why she wanted to die. Perhaps it was kinder to let her, but I'm a doctor.

  • Dr. Noboru Yasumoto: When she stares at me, I don't know what to do. Her eyes are suspicious, insolent and very lonely.
