In my opinion, in the historical trend, the incompatibility between tradition and westernization like in the film is inevitable. The emperor's childish face left a deep impression on me and reminded me of Puyi. When Katsumoto returned to Tokyo and asked him to be strong, the emperor was not strong. Under the huge pressure of the parliament, he chose to compromise. As a result, Katsumoto fled and lost his son. But at the end of the film, he accepted Katsumoto's samurai sword presented to him by Tom, and chose what he wanted to choose.
I think of these clips and think of it now. We are currently in the best and worst times, people are impetuous, I started to yearn for life in that village after watching the film, where Tommy got his peaceful sleep, but I don’t know where I am in front of the computer Find your own peace.
Bushido spirit is just a belief, embodied in life, it can be thousands of different beliefs, it represents a certain tradition that we have lost. Whenever I am faced with the come on and check out in so many Chinese songs nowadays and the big English letters on our T-shirts, I always think, what about our characters and our culture?
I don't know what exactly we should be holding on to, all I know is that I'm having a hard time finding one thing that's holding me on for too long right now. This film was made in 2003, maybe the United States already had such a phenomenon at that time.
I can't forget Katsumoto's eyes before his death when he looked at the cherry blossom tree behind Tom, and he said that the bunch of cherry blossoms was perfect.
I guess it wasn't because of how special that bouquet was, just that the moment was special. Katsumoto was very happy that Tomoe accepted his spirit as an alien, and also firmly believed that through the final battle of these warriors, the immature emperor could hear the last cry of their Bushido spirit.
So I firmly believe that Katsumoto did not lose, the samurai in decline just lost to the times, their armor, masks and heavy cold weapons all lost to the faster and stronger development trend of the times, but their spirit cannot be forgotten. .
Last but not least, the Japanese soldiers who were trained in the new way disobeyed their orders to stop firing, they even knelt down to show respect for those samurai who died, I think I can think that the death of Katsumoto et al called them back Deep down the spirit of Yamato nation.
The most successful part of this film is that it gives me hope. It makes me firmly believe that our traditions and beliefs will never be lost. One day, we will also remember our ancestors because of the encounter of the times The yellow memory in the blood.
