"Trickster in troubled times", the word has always been a derogatory term in my mind, and I didn't know the other meaning until I watched this movie.
The protagonist of the movie, I feel is a "traitor in troubled times", but he is just, for everyone, for the peace of the town. The protagonist is dealing with two evil forces, trying to cover up that he is righteous, and skillfully resorting to a "diversion" against the two forces, so that the evil and the evil go to war, from which all evil will be eliminated, and the town will be restored to its past. of tranquility.
This movie also made me understand what a good person is. A good person is not a superman, not an Ultraman. A good person may pretend to be a bad person, and finally eliminate the bad person quietly. A good person should consider the overall situation, and cannot be fooled by temporary interests or money. As long as you are smart and strong-willed, one day you will: "Those who have the will will succeed."

    Evil is as unscrupulous as the smog and creeping grass, Sanjiu Lang just needs to be like a cricket, holding the fighting grass to the left and right. I used to think that samurai movies were very western, but now it seems that westerns have a Japanese wilderness style, and they influence each other. The majestic Toshiro Mifune is actually only 174, and Eastwood needs 193 if he wants to be slender and strong... 10

    #North Film FestivalPhoto# is probably my favorite Akira Kurosawa movie, and it would be a good idea to use it as a sequel to "Tsubaki Thirteen Lang". There were twists and turns (nearly beaten), but overall it was positive and fun. This story is not cliché at all. It does not follow the routine of justice defeating evil. Instead, it portrays the positive and negative characters with flesh and blood. It also uses the irony of the past to see that the world is cool and people are not old. Iconic classic characters. ps Cheng Xiaodong and Tsui Hark's "Human Road" many scenes are copied from this film. It seems that the classics influence each other, and the great filmmakers also cherish each other.
