The film begins with a sad and sad singing, and the singing voices are bleak and sad, repeatedly explaining that this is the theme of desire and greed. The story begins with a prophecy. The two generals heard a bizarre prophecy on their way back to the city to grant rewards, and thus began a bizarre story around this prophecy. At the end, the words of the son of Sanyi (the last one who could become the lord of the city in the prophecy) felt that he was the only sober person in this story: it is your desire to practice the prophecy. Yes, from the story of the movie itself, without this prophecy, the faint wicked desire in people's hearts may not be evoked; without this prophecy, the story of the two generals in the movie may have to be rewritten, this But it's going to stump Kurosawa Akira.
However, once there are desires in people's hearts that cannot be achieved by fair means, a prophecy often makes people "fake tigers and prey". Seeing this, I thought that many peasant uprisings in ancient my country were launched by prophetic slogans. Nursery rhymes, sky statues, stone men and the like can become props for dynasty change. The leaders of the uprising used their own ideals of action. To practice the prophecy, whether the prophecy is true or false is no longer important. The key is that this prophecy can give oneself sufficient courage and reason to act. Therefore, prophecy seems to play an indispensable role in the factor of human nature.
The prophecy in this movie is actually just a prop. Use prophecies to satisfy one's greed and desires. In the end, success also predicts failure and prediction. I believe that there is a prophecy in each of us. The key is how this prophecy caters to our own desires.
