Kambei Shinada (Takashi Shimura) from Kurosawa's 7 Samurai, of course. The old-school, old-gangsta bad-ass middle-aged man 💪 ( ) A village hires seven samurai to defend them from rampaging bandits. While the seven warriors initially clash over varying differences, they eventually unite over their task to defend the villagers and vanquish their enemies. I'll lead off with this: I know that the 3 hour+ runtime and subtitles will turn off many viewers, but if you can overlook those two things, certainly do so. This is a great classic film that, when you watch it, you can see how it has influenced so much of cinema since it was released. The way massive battles were shot obviously has influenced such franchises as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and even superhero films, and its character development, humor, acting, music, and so much more combine into a wonderful blend that makes for a classic Japanese action film that I am extremely glad to have watched. Aside from the lengthy runtime, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and look forward to revisiting it more in the future. Highly recommended for those who can get past the runtime and subtitled dialogue. Content Concerns: There's quite a bit of (mostly) bloodless violence that does result in death and destruction. Language, while not in English, is a bit of a problem. There are approximately 50 subtitled uses of profanity, but strangely enough, after doing research I found out that apparently various translations have given various counts of language throughout, so apparently some was added in the Criterion Collection version that isn't in others and apparently the original Japanese version uses light profanity? It's a bit of an interesting dilemma, but it's worth noting since the language is present in the subtitles. (November 2023) Zeige 5 von 5
The Seven Samurai doesn’t seem like a historical or “period” film at all: everything is going on now, right on top of us. Kurosawa can create diversion that doesn’t divert from the subject: when the farmers scan the street for hungry samurai, he presents a little scherzo of elegant figures moving through humbler humanity. The stance, the formalized carriage of the samurai, gives substance to the farmers’ desperate faith in them: surely they could dispose of countless ordinary men. The pace and cinematic feeling, the verve, the humor are completely modern. Kurosawa is perhaps the greatest of all contemporary film craftsmen: his use of the horizon for compositional variety, the seemingly infinite camera angles, the compositions that are alive with action, the almost abstract use of trees, flowers, sky, rain, mud, and moving figures are all active. In The Seven Samurai your eye does not rest — you do not see any of the static, careful arrangements, the crawling, overcomposed salon photography of Hollywood’s big productions.
