alienated life

I am very interested in the history of Japan's Warring States period, and at the same time, this is from the hands of Master Kurosawa, so of course it must be watched well.
The main point of the film is that a thief acted as a thief during the three years of Takeda Shingen's death. The story of Takeda's shadow. In the past three years, whether it was an enemy or a retainer, they have concealed it, and even took down the high sky castle that Takeda's main deity had never captured. But the lie was still exposed, and with the shattering of the lie, The Takeda family also perished.
For the film itself, there is no need to praise it too much, because the film itself strongly expresses an irresistible charm. In the context of big history, the appearance of a small person makes history The trajectory has been deflected, and the family of Oda and Tokugawa has also deflected. And the thief who acts as a stand-in, his destiny has also changed in this unusual life, and his own nature has also changed. Among them The characters involved are all presented to us one by one. Takeda Katsurai's rashness, Oda Nobunaga's bravery, Tokugawa Ieyasu's prudence, and Takeda Nobuyen's humility are all deeply impressive. Among them, the magnificent battle The scene also makes people feel relaxed and happy. Although it can't compare with the fineness and gorgeousness of CG animation, the courage shown in it can only be tasted by people who have seen the movie. Siege battles and field battles have their own style and style. The charm of each is that one is a contest of wisdom and strategy between the offensive and defensive sides, and the other is a test of courage between the two sides. No matter which part, it makes people feel emotional, and even today, it is enough to be proud of the heroes
. Movies, Shadow Warrior is a topic that can't be talked about. In him, there is a topic that can't be talked about. No matter what point of view, whether it is human nature, power, or politics, you can find the support you need from it. .
What I want to say is mainly from two aspects, one is the shadow warrior, and the other is the general who knows the truth represented by Xin Lian. Let’s talk about the shadow warrior first, his experience is a process of alienation. The inexplicable commitment does not belong to this His mission has become another person who is thousands of times different from himself. In the past three years, he is not Takeda Shingen, nor is he a thief, he is no one, just a poor shadow, just silently succumbs. I don't know where the oppression came from, it didn't come from Takeda Shingen, and it didn't come from a leader, but he promised to become another person. The results after this were unimaginable and unexpected, but after the incident, only He can silently accept and endure his own changes. After this alienation is over, he can no longer be independent of his own personality, and still lives in the shadow of Takeda Shingen, and his final destiny can only be to free himself through death. Those who have lost themselves may face only this road.
But the military generals who know the truth still treat the thief with respect, not only to act realistically, but when the party is in the hut, when the thief is sitting on the verge of death, his guards The servant immediately saluted, and when the thief was smiling, they were still joking about the thief. With a majesty that comes from power itself, it is really confusing to his power, no matter who he is, as long as he has this aura But it seems to have real authority. It seems inappropriate to describe it with a fox and a tiger, but it is a magic power that makes people feel a burst of power, involuntarily surrender to him, and even flatter to it. This must be said to be another kind of alienation.
There are so many topics that can be talked about in this movie. There are far more than just a few. After watching the movie, I know how much I have gained.

    Rewatch. The opening narration is very sharp, but the whole is still fatal: the character as the protagonist is too passive, and it is extremely difficult for the audience to identify and empathize with him; in terms of the plot, the passive leads to the dislocation and lack of the core, the structure loses cohesion, and the expression is therefore dislocated. Visually, there are thick ink and color everywhere, showing Lao Hei's painting talent vividly. In a sense, Lao Hei is not making movies in the way of movies, but in the way of painting...

    "I often want to give up myself and regain my freedom, but it is too selfish. Shadows are inseparable from people...with the real body, the stand-in is meaningful.” The most exciting part is the middle section of the stand-in, which is absurd and reasonable. , Can not help but laugh. The spirit of immovability makes me immovable, with sore back and back, but it is undoubtedly still a classic.

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.
