After reading this article, I feel a little sad,

Mifune's character Matsunaga ultimately could not escape the fate of death.

I thought the ending was a pity for Matsunaga

Unexpectedly, in the last minute or two, the school girl who appeared in the first half of the film appeared again

The school girl reports good news to the real doctor Tian, ​​played by Shimura Joe.

She is cured of tuberculosis and is going to have a smoothie with Dr. Sanada

Dr. Sanada said, "The most important medicine for human beings is rationality"

Instead, the film leads to criticism of Matsunaga's non-observance of doctor's orders

The previous sympathy and grief for Matsunaga were swept away


Considering the film made in 1948, three years after Japan's defeat

"The most important medicine for mankind is reason"

The "rationality" here may not just refer to obeying the doctor's orders.

    [May 2020 Kurosawa Akira √] A mature work in the style of Emperor Kurosawa (although it is a little too hard). There is no one who can make a gangster theme into a typical realistic work. The environment determines the character's character and implies the character's fate. Even the central idea is really not subtle enough for the character to speak out (and it doesn't need every paragraph to be stink). pond...). Shimura Takao is a very unique doctor. He writes really well, but he is really awkward with Mifune, and he is awkward from the beginning to the end. 150 minute version?). That dream is indeed the master's handwriting, plus the various strange angles at the end of the film that emphasize the shape of the characters, it can be seen that Emperor Kurosawa is really knowledgeable at this time, and has absorbed a lot of audio-visual means from the European avant-garde and even the montage school.

  • Matsunaga: Screw the x-rays!

  • Sanada: The whole medical profession's ridiculous. Doctors can't survive without patients. But all we ever try to do is cure them.
