Learning history also knows the events that happened in Japan during the Restoration Period, and the background of "Cut the Belly" is the decline of the Tokugawa period. It is a good thing to have a peaceful and prosperous age, but the people and things left over from the war will become numerous if they are not properly handled. The tragedy, slowly piled up into a city of resentment. The director is really wonderful. This story doesn't tell a lot of plots from the beginning. Of course, the most important thing is that the actors perform superbly. "Cut the Belly" once again proves the skills of these actors in the past, no matter if they are Japanese, Or from other countries, I found that the movies I watched for a long time recently attracted me, especially the actors. A classic can become a classic really depends on many factors.
The male protagonist Jinyun Hanshiro is a very thick-framed samurai, a very man, how can I explain this? Of course, it's because I have seen too many slender men in Japan today. Although neutral beauty is popular now, I still prefer this type of big men, wild and domineering, and the effect of surprising the audience as soon as they appear. Hanshiro is such a man. He came to Ii's house, which was very famous at the time, and said that he hoped the master would accept him as his subordinate. The poverty of life made many samurai useless, and they gave up their dignity and only wanted to exchange some money. Some samurai even pretended to be cut to the stomach for a job. For the samurai, "cutting the abdomen" is a solemn act, and it is also a martial arts spirit, the soul of a samurai, and the soured cutting of the abdomen is extremely sad.
Hanshiro wanted to use the place of the Ii family to perform abdominal incision. If they didn't intend to invite him, this is, the people of the Ii family told him the story of Qianqianyan begging for a daughter. Ms. Qian Qianyan once wanted to join the Jingyi family because of poverty, but in the end she couldn't cut her abdomen with a bamboo knife. She bit her tongue and committed suicide. After his death, he was ridiculed by everyone. It turned out that Qian Qianyan's daughter-in-law was Hanshiro's son-in-law. Through the story that Hanshiro slowly told at the belly-cutting venue, the definition of the warrior spirit in his heart was unmistakably revealed. Some were for the sake of food, some were for face, and some even wrapped cowardice under the skin of the samurai.
Sadly, the armored warrior figure in Ii's house is so quiet, the black mask hides some kind of power, he stares at his descendants, and sits quietly on this altar. How flattering others seemed to bow down to him, Hanshiro was seriously injured and hugged the figure representing the spirit of a samurai, and smashed it to the ground. Yes, in the face of the current world, why stay here? This is an insult, but unfortunately, reality is cruel after all, and even scary gods will always be controlled by humans one day, just like this portrait. The original altar. Everything that happened before was subtly covered up, and the Jingi family was killed by Hanshiro and turned on his back. In the end, he continued to be famous all over the world, because anything can be buried by means, and the fate of people can never escape the times. changes.
Hanshiro not only represented the plight of the Japanese samurai at that time, but also secretly spoke to us now. Although "Cut the Belly" is a black and white film in the 1960s, even now, it definitely does not have any backward or dull elements. Let us have more thought. In the face of difficulties, whether we live for ourselves or for our family, men are born with a responsibility to protect their family. I have a deep understanding of this point. It may be that there are too many men of all kinds around me. , But there is no one who can have such a great intention to appear, like Qian Qianyan begging for a daughter to sell his samurai sword for his wife and son, like Hanshiro who sacrificed himself for his family to be vigilant against the world. Saying this, I know that the requirements for people today are too high, and I also believe that movies belong to movies, and can never be compared with reality, but usually these movies, the information that can be obtained or the things that can be understood are the most precious. .
Where has the samurai spirit gone? It has come to my heart and deserves to be preached to those around me. The dignity of a man has never been lost, as long as there is hope and courage in the heart, no matter it is the past or the present, history is still created by us, it is those unbearable memories that fall, and the reconstruction of our glorious future.
