Thoughts triggered by Dr. Sansho

I saw this movie by chance, and the latest movie review was a few years ago, but I still couldn't help recording my thoughts and some immature questions.
After watching the movie's pretty happy ending, what I wanted to know even more was what happened to the slaves when they were freed, after their party that night? Behind the momentary joy, some people may find a new career and a new foothold, some people will return to their hometowns and find relatives, and more people may have a kind of desolate joy and sorrow, because they can no longer Choose your own life, and you have become accustomed to your own life.
The second thought that came to my mind was that when the chef king went to liberate the slaves in Dr. Sanjiao’s house as the manager, I saw the yard and the room full of people, at least one hundred and ten people. At most, the people who take care of them are less than fifty. If these slaves can consciously organize resistance, many people may have escaped a few years ago. Why didn't they do it? I feel it is because of ignorance. So ignorance is the greatest tragedy of a nation.
The third question is something I can't figure out. Why does Shinobu, also An Shou, have to sacrifice? Doctor Sanjiao definitely doesn't want to lose another female after losing a male, so if Shinobu can endure for a while and keep her teeth fixed, maybe she can wait for the light. Can't bear it for a while. Especially after seeing her mother persevering and persevering until her son found her, she felt that Shinobu might not have to die, and from Shinobi's growth experience and her tolerant and tolerant character, maybe this character is more The right route is not death.

Sansho the Bailiff quotes

  • Taro: Even children as young as you are sold and bought, treated like animals, and nobody questions it. What a horrible world.

  • Taro: [to Zushio] I found that humans have little sympathy for things that don't directly concern them. They're ruthless. Unless those hearts can be changed, the world you dream of cannot come true. If you wish to live honestly with your conscience, keep close to the Buddha.
