In my opinion, the so-called "Samurai Sword Spirit" is nothing but a tool used by the ruling class to stabilize the regime and its power. Glory" thing. Even if it is, burning, killing, looting, committing crimes and even destroying human nature... As long as the so-called "family master", "emperor", and "empire" need it, they can act recklessly in the name of "Bushido spirit". So-called "Samurai" and cultists are different? Don't compare "Bushido spirit" with Chinese "chivalry", they are not on the same level. "Chivalry" is highlighted by the word "righteousness", which emphasizes: upholding justice for others, drawing a sword to help, punishing evil and promoting good, and doing justice for heaven.

    9.0 After watching "The Sword of Death", I really couldn't bear to re-watch the masterpiece "Cut the Belly". The shot is so classical and delicate, the story is slow, and the layers are progressive, but the tension is full, and there is a chill in the composition. Sing a dirge for Bushido, forbearance and heavy, full of sighs, Bushido has long been broken, and only the hypocritical appearance has become a "useless symbol".

    The flow of the lens creates a good sense of spatial hierarchy, and the rigorous composition and lighting are also quite skillful, but the output basically depends on the lines, which is a bit unpleasant.

Hara-Kiri quotes

  • Hanshiro Tsugumo: When my master's house fell we immediately left the domain and moved to Edo. The streets of Edo were crowded with ronin - flotsam from the Battle of Sekigahara. In former times, other clans would have gladly taken in any ronin who'd earned a name for himself. But in an era no longer in need of warriors or horses, so peaceful that no wind even rustled the leaves on the trees, it was a constant struggle simply to find a meal. Indeed, it shames me to recall our miserable lives of these last eight or nine years.

  • Hanshiro Tsugumo: Who can fathom the depths of another man's heart?
