One of the top ten movies of the month. 1. Everyone is a protagonist. Probably because the Japanese are too dedicated, the characters in the film are all excellent and professional. Even the child who plays the thief has an excellent expression and good line skills. After drinking poison, he has difficulty speaking and panting. Violation. 2. Embed warmth into poverty and tear apart the dreaded life of poverty, whether it's a twelve-year-old girl who was almost forced to make money by the so-called "foster mother", or a seven-year-old kid who later steals porridge for the family to eat , and was finally discovered that the family committed suicide by drinking poison together. These stories and scenes tell the audience the backwardness, poverty and despair of that era at all times, but even in the face of material scarcity, lack of food, and bottomless human nature In dark moments, there are also times when tears are burning on the face - the female nurses at the medical center overheard the conversation between the little girl and the boy, and learned that the girl would rather eat less "leftovers" in order to prevent the boy from stealing porridge. When it was left to the boy, he hurriedly took the rice bucket away, and when the other nurses did not eat too much, several people looked at each other, and in order to keep the boy who drank the poison alive, the girl and several nurses used the legendary earthly method to confront each other. Calling the boy's name from the well... These details are all moving. 3. The protagonist with a "bad problem", the red beard, has a charisma that others do not have. Not only is his business superb, but he is also righteous, policing evil and punishing traitors, standing up for the kind and weak, and turning his preaching into invisible, naturally he won everyone. Even the doctor who was reluctant to stay as an intern at the beginning, finally gave up the beauty of being a general doctor, and also stayed in the medical center to follow the red beard, which also showed the personal charm of the red beard from the side.

    [China Film Archive Kurosawa Akira Film Festival] Through the medical hall opened by Red Beard, the stories of seven individuals, including disciples, nurses, and patients, are drawn. The plot is as rich as a series of multi-episodes melodrama, showing the Edo period The miserable life of the poor and the bottom people and their yearning for a better life. Sad but still hopeful. The crazy girl recounts a scene, a long shot can switch freely between the middle and close shots, and the scheduling of the shots is amazing! The upper half is better than the procrastinated lower half. This is the last film that Kurosawa Akira and Toshiro Mifune have collaborated with. From then on until Mifune's death, the two never interacted.

Red Beard quotes

  • Genzo Tsugawa: We knew you were coming two weeks ago. It seems he likes you. He's unfriendly to people he likes. Not me. He never finds fault with me. He ignores me completely.

  • Dr. Handayu Mori: The pain and loneliness of death frighten me. But Dr. Niide looks at it differently. He looks into their hearts as well as their bodies.
