When Taka dresses Algren in her family armour it is more intimate and touching than any love scene.
You are so right, mate....
Although I somehow wished, that they even wouldn't have kissed each other at all.
@@athanasiosdimitropoulos4456 Did you see this kiss? a little and very romantic kiss, nothing more. This make this kiss very emotional.
@@Golfballtauchen
Correct. Very subtle and tender. Still it felt "wrong" for me. Or maybe out of place. Dressing him in this tender and sensual way was such a unique way of showing affection/love and respect. It felt a little off for me at that moment. But hey, thats just me.... 😉
Its a rip off of a scene in Twilight Samurai - and that scene is so much better in Twilight Samurai.
@@athanasiosdimitropoulos4456 I have same opinion about that kiss. It feels out of order there. A simple hug would have sufficed in continuation with the emotions and flow at that moment. 👍
The soldiers thanked the Samurai for 1,000 years of service. But now comes the era of modern Japan. Katsumoto was the last Samurai.
samurai is plural
Katsumoto technically was not the LAST Samurai. He was the last leader of the Samurai "rebellion".
@@kevinmoore2929 How can there be more Samurai when the old days were over and Japan was unified? What other daimyo there were?
For a long time I debated what they meant about who the last samurai was and it occurred to me that it was truly PLURAL, the whole group. And this might include Algren.
The music is so incredible in this movie. Hans Zimmer really outdid himself
His compositions were described by japaneses music composers as being able to describe japan and it's culture perfectly. They were in awe when he went to them for consel.
The actor playing the oldest son did such a great job in this film. The scene out on the porch when he breaks down crying and Algren hugs him gets me every time.
Easily Toms best movie. Hands down. From his acting to the incredible screenplay, directing, music, deep storytelling and emotions. Just 11/10 all day long
I completely agree. It's in my top three movies of all time.
@@micksailor4715 Same
such a dumb thing to say...can't wait for "the last black man in harlem"....starring tom hanks...movie is such hollywood corny shit, but tom cruises best? your opinion on anything is invalid...
@@andrewbird7364 cool story kiddo.
@@crispy_338 is meet the Fockers your favourite de Nero film?
"The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life."
: as Katsumoto dies, having seen the cherry blossoms in the distance :
"Perfect. They are all, perfect."
In his final moments, he understood that it is not a perfect blossom which is rare, but rather the appreciation for the unique beauty of all blossoms. They are all perfect.
He didn't know him, when Katsumoto first saw Cpt. Algren fighting the samurai, Algren was holding a spear with a white tiger banner, Katsumoto had a vision of a white tiger fighting samurai in the beginning. It's a very important part of the story, he saw it as a sign, and it's the reason he spared Algren.
More a dream than a vision.
Good meditation is like hovering between wakeful and sleep state, so you can basically dream as if you were sleeping but with more control to wake.
this is literally the most important part and no reactor gets it ;D
@@Sinthoras25031994 - I saw one that did, I was very relieved.
Centane: - Oh no, I'm gonna cry again!
Everyone: - You've been crying for 45 minutes.
OKKK dont expose me like this?? 😂😭
@@Centane haha :)
all jokes aside, this was a wonderful reaction
I feel like Hans Zimmer can pretty much just point at me and I'll start crying. Might be his best work.
The Lion King is his best IMO, but The Last Samurai came very close.
“I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
Awesome movie, one of my favourites. Thank you for a great reaction. 10/10!
This movie is fiction but is inspired by real events... they added an "american captain" because Hollywood... but that's how we can witness this story, through his eyes, so I think it's ok.
The character Katsumoto is based on a samurai called Saigo, his rebellion was known as the Satsuma Rebellion and the last battle where they all died was the Battle of Shiroyama. This battle was pretty much like in the movie, 500 samurai against the Imperial Army, the difference was 60 to 1. First there was a huge combat, a big massacre, and finally the last charge of the remaining 40 samurai who ended up dying under a rain of bullets. This was the end of the samurai and people start calling Saigo "The Last Samurai".
Really great movie, in my opinion this is the best Tom Cruise film.
P. S.
There is a band called Sabaton they have a song about this historical events, the song is called "Shiroyama", maybe if you're interested you can listen to it.
this story is based on a French military reworked by Hollywood
@@anthonyluccini1015 I don't know if Algren was at some level inspired by Brurnet, I haven't seen any official source claiming that.
Also, I don't see any resemblance in their stories besides being foreigners in a japanese war. I mean, like you said Brunet was french and Algren is from the US. Brunet's participation was during the Tokugawa Era in the Boshin War and Algren's participation is in the Meiji Era in the Satsuma Rebellion. During the Boshin War, Brunet fought on the side of the government against the rebels and Saigo was on the side of the rebels fighting against the government so the real Katsumoto (Saigo) and the real Algren (Brunet) were actually enemies, etc...
Algren and Brunet have very opposite lives to be the "same" character. 🤔
@@_Gato.Negro_ They were both foreign military advisers hired to modernize the japanese army. They both fought, from the countryside, an unwinnable war against the powers that be, did they not ? It was technically against the emperor both times. Yes it's vague, but the similarities are too numerous to be coincidental... Of course there are other influences for Algren, but Brunet is probably the main one.
Fellow Sabaton enjoyer, nice.
It’s based on historical events but it’s a accumulation of different events put into this story. Like a summary.
"Tell me how he died".
"No.... I will tell you how he lived"
Such powerful words. Love this movie. Great reaction
Arguably one of the gratest lines in media history.
This whole movie is sad and wholesome at same time. Algren's resentment for his life for what he has done, him finding true peace, samurais' respect for warriors, their understanding each other's way of life and most of all yearning for respect and their own culture.
Jules Brunet, born January 2, 1838 in Belfort and died August 12, 1911 in Fontenay-sous-Bois, was a French general of division whose career culmination was his activity during an instruction mission in Japan. Indeed, following the difficulties of the shogun, who still retained political power for a time, this artillery instructor who came to modernize his army of samurai then joined his troops against the new Japanese imperial power.
One of the greatest most emotional movies ever made , ive watched a dozen times and it still breaks me
It's a VERY romanticized version of the Meiji Renovation/Revolution from the side of the Samurai from what I understand. The part about 500 Samurai vs 30,000 Imperial conscripts is true though.
For the Most part hundreds of thousands of Samurai peacefully adopted to the changing world, but they also took their teaching and the spirt with them, so the Emperor's speech at the end has some truth to it.
It is a romanticized/heavily exaggerated(nearly fictionalized) version of the Satsuma rebellion, which occurred as a result of knock on effects of the Meiji Revolution.
@@G3609 "Nearly fictionalized"? The movie is complete fiction. Katsumoto never existed, Algren never existed, Omura never existed, etc. The movie was INSPIRED by the real events of the Satsuma Rebellion but it's still 100% fiction.
@@_Gato.Negro_ Algren didn't exist, but Jules Brunet did. but i guess americans couldn't put a french face as a "hero" of their movie
@@josephguillerey4391 Katsumoto's story is very similar to Saigo's story. They were the leaders of a rebellion, they fought against the Imperial Army and ended up all of them dead, it is said that Saigo got shot and committed seppuku, etc. Very similar.
But between Brunet and Algren there are no similarities besides being foreigners in a japanese war. I mean, like you said Brunet was french and Algren is from the US. Also, Brunet's participation was during the Tokugawa Era in the Boshin War and Algren's participation is in the Meiji Era in the Satsuma Rebellion. During the Boshin War, Brunet fought on the side of the government against the rebels and Saigo was on the side of the rebels fighting against the government so the real Katsumoto (Saigo) and the real Algren (Brunet) were actually enemies, etc...
Algren and Brunet have very opposite lives to be the "same" character. 🤔
Katsumoto was based of Saigo Takamori from Satsuma. Was a hero of the meiji restoration, then rebeled after that.
There are lots of foreign warriors from the west partaking the meiji resroration. Algren may have been based off some of them or combination of them.
The movie has lots of inconsistencies (like samurai's did not use firearms), but does good on portraying some Japanese culture. So I'm good with it.
Thank you for embracing this movie and my culture, sharing all you emotions and tears. Please make your way to visit Japan one day.
(Kiss/kissing was foreign to Japan, so Taka did not understand its meaning - (hence the "no reaction" by her. It was a touching sentiment by Algren).
I enjoyed the Norwegian subtitles! I can't understand or speak it but was enjoyable trying to decipher it.
In my opinion, the true last samurai is Bob by far. His very last move is beyond anything else in the movie.
Knowing the movie and not having to read the subtitles actually makes the scenes where Tom speaks Japanese more beautiful and powerful.
There’s an ancient Japanese proverb that says ‘power and great beauty is a movie without subtitles’
@@HkFinn83 there were philosophies that ran counter to that too, such as "sub is better than dub"
I spent 4 years living in Japan and can say that this "respect" that people show each other is still alive. Not everyone of course, and not all of the time, but it is there, and it is beautiful.
Except if people stumble - you go down in Japan and you're curtains 😂
Very true, I lived in Japan for a few years too and the respect among everyone is real. They have problems too like crime and all but there is an understanding of respect across generations.
Thank you for lived in Japan
And understanding my culture
You guys always welcome
Yes, you saw the Japanese general commit Seppuku in "Hacksaw Ridge." It's an act of contrition to regain honor. The man slices open his belly with a knife or short sword and must not scream in pain. A second man will ease his suffering by beheading the first.
Why don't you die in battle rather than commit seppuku
More importantly, someone considered close to them. A final act of kindness from a good friend. Inazo Nitobe wrote of it in 1899 in his masterpiece "Bushido: The Soul of Japan" which was inspired by his talks with his western friends who didn't understand the culture. So he essentially wrote a manual on the culture.
Even more Interesting is the blade wasn’t supposed to completely cut the head clean off. The cut was supposed to be stopped in such a way that the head would still be partially attached by skin/a bit of muscle. To completely remove the head was considered a dishonour to the man preforming seppuku, as well as his “Kaishakunin”, or man delivering the blow, who would also be dishonoured.
This is hands down one of the best movies ever made. it hits different. There's something very special about it.
Algren speaks to Katsumoto about the Battle of Thermopylae. The movie '300' is a fictionalization of that battle and has amazing cinematography. Might want to add it to a poll.
Not everyone has that automatic emotional connection. There are scenes in this film that continue to wreck me, no matter how many times I've seen them, so I wanted to thank you for explaining for those who might not have the same experience.
So a few things to say about this, one of my favorite movies:
while not technically based on a particular real life story, it IS inspired in part by the story of Jules Brunet, a frenchman who fought along side the samurai in an earlier war.
I don't know if you recognized Mr Graham but he was pettigrew in Harry Potter.
Seizō Fukumoto played the silent samurai who escorted Algren around the village and ultimately stopped a bullet for him. Fukumoto had a very long career playing samurai on the silver screen. One of the things he was known for was kirareyaku, which involved portraying the loser of a sword duel. It is estimated that he died onscreen 50,000 times.
My personal favorite scene is the ninja attack.
Not gonna lie, it brings me so much joy to see other people experience that emotional rollercoaster. Such a badass movie with too much heart. I almost cried just from those clips!
I once heard from someone when I was in the army, “war.. war is a place of no wins or losses, only loss.”
And I’ll never forget that.
My favorite scenes were the "Beating in the rain" and "A life in every breath." The music while Ujio mercilessly beats Algren was a perfect narration for Algren's utter determination not to yield and his self loathing desire to be punished.
"A life in every breath" encapsulates the necessary mindset for a warrior to deliberately face death and the paradoxical realization that every moment is an equal part of eternity.
After 13 years from when ive saw this for the first time, I"m still gettting emotional every time i see this movie or reaction to it. The music, scenery, honor, peace and will to protect , respect and many more to be seen here. Absolutely fantastic movie and your reaction was the way it should be, cuz theres no other way than cry for this piece of art.
Love this film. The music, cinematography, the overall tone is so well done. The back and forth between Katsumoto and Algren really builds the story to the end.
Mmm, it's a shame that Warner Bros has neglected it for so long.
It's crying out for a good 4K remaster on home video, and Blood Diamond after that, albeit Blood Diamond looked far cleaner on Bluray than Last Samurai did.
I absolutely love this young lady. She is Very polite. Very patient and unnecessarily kind. She doesn't judge. I know I've commented before in her favor, but there is a reason for that; Her parents were beyond good parents. I just love her.
38:38 Katsumoto is the last samurai of the movie which is why he is the focus of the movie/ subject of Algren and the Emperor's conversation. And, the word samurai is also plural which could also include the whole last samurai army.
I'm only halfway in your reaction, but I can see your love for his character, and see the respect for Matsumoto growing by the minute
yeah, he had really good chemistry with the kids and the kid actors were so perfectly cast and the little one couldn't be more adorable.
my favorite scene was when Algren first steps out in full armor. i first saw this film in a full cinema and remember the huge audible audience reaction to that part.. oh also i could tell from the video thumbnail that i was in for a crying reaction and i am 100% for it
The Last Samurai's Katsumoto Moritsugu is based on the iconic Japanese samurai Saigō Takamori. In real life, Saigō initially led the Imperial forces and won the four-day Battle of Toba-Fushimi in January 1868. By 1877, he sided with rebel forces and fought in what's now known as the Satsuma Rebellion.
I can't choose a favorite part. I had a very emotional connection with many scenes in this movie. I battle PTSD everyday for going on 13 years now. I could completely feel where Algrens pain was coming from, but obviously not for the same reasons. To many powerful scenes to choose a favorite.
A true masterpiece of a movie. Great choice!
My favorite part was when homie with the horn helmet who checked him through out the whole movie showed him respect by checking if his armor was properly equipped meaning he wants him to be ready to fight with him so underrated
The character Nathan Algren is inspired by the exploits of French Military Officer Jules Brunet in Japan.
Is he? Really? Is there any official source for that? Because during the Boshin war, Saigo (the samurai in which Katsumoto was inspired) was a rebel trying to overthrow the government, and on the other side you have Brunet fighting on the government's side. So, Saigo and Brunet were enemies.
@@_Gato.Negro_ en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jules_Brunet I think it's sourced well enough
The Last Samouraï is one of the best in have ever seen with Dances with wolves, Avatar, Titanic and Out of Africa.
Excellent reaction. I am always an emotional train wreck when I watch this movie. Besides all the action it is a great love story. The scene when Taka helps Nathan put on her late husband's clothes is beyond beautiful. At the end what happened to him? Some say this, some say that. My heart says he went back to her. End of story. ❤
Every now and again I find myself watching it just to see the battle in the mist. And end up watching the whole movie again!
Excellent reaction. I was fortunate enough to see this in the theater when it was new -- in fact, I saw it multiple times. And, I have seen it several more times since then. Each time I get more emotional because I know what is coming. I love your tears, they tell us how much you care. Thanks By the way, my favorite line is when the Emperor asks Algren to tell him how Hatsumoto died and he responds, I'll tell you how he lived. I loved that that line hit you too.
The Last Samurai's Katsumoto Moritsugu is based on the iconic Japanese samurai Saigō Takamori. Saigō was defeated and killed at the Battle of Shiroyama, which is the inspiration for the final extended battle sequence in The Last Samurai (and thus part of the true story). Saigō was posthumously pardoned by the Emperor and has a statue in Tokyo.
Cruise's character isn't based on a true story of an American soldier but is inspired by the real history of a French Army officer named Jules Brunet. In 1866, Brunet was sent to Japan to train military forces and ultimately fought in the Boshin War after refusing orders to return home.
Saigō Takamori was a general of the imperial army, but he was born as a son to a lower ranking Samurai. Katsumoto however comes from a rich family, who had constructed the temple he is shown praying in, " a thousand years ago " , as the tells in the movie. Therefore, Katsumoto might me a character who is a mixture between a Samurai - General like Takamori and a "Daimyö", a provincial magnat and in this case a higher ranking, feudal Samurai - Lord.
Imo this is the best OST Hans Zimmer has ever made for a movie. I just love every single saoundtrack in it.
NEVER apologize for tears, I've seen this move 20 times and still cry. Powerful does not describe, or even come close, to what this movie actually means
Thank you for watching this, it is easily one of my favorite movies. It was released while I was living in Japan, and I remember my Japanese friends loved it as well.
The soldiers at the end bowed to the Samurai, mainly Katsumoto, to show respect for their unyielding conviction to their principles. The captain was the one who ordered the cease fire, against Omura's wishes, to give Katsumoto the chance to end his life honorably. The captain then bows and the other soldiers follow his example. They were basically ordered to kill their cultural heroes & heritage, but the captain could no longer dishonor himself or his people.
FYI: Algren wasn't the last samurai, Katsumoto was. Algren was a witness to the last days of the samurai. But the samurai spirit has endured long after.
Nobutada going out the way he did always gets to me .
Seen this film bout 50 times...it still gets me at least once every playthrough ...normally during the final charge
Custer, only the second in command of the 7th, technically had 268 officers, enlisted, civilians and Indian scouts during the actual battle. The regiment's supply train was left sufficient distance away from the battle and was not attacked afterwards. If i remember correctly, there were 50 soldiers in the supply train. When the regiment was at its peak, there were around 850 soldiers.
First: What a reaction 😱? Instant classic! Thank you, Kamilla!
I'm a grown-ass man and I cry each time in this movie. When I realized it gets you way early and each time it got harder for you, I was: "Oh boy, there's still so much to come ..." I really love this movie, historical correctness be damned. Ken Watanabe (Katsumoto) and Hiroyuki Sanada (Ujio) are stealing the show and killing it and Tom acts great, as well.
My favourite scene is at the end when Katsumoto recognizes that every blossom is perfect. This is so "hanami" 🌸🌸🌸!
The respect shown at the end was for Katsumoto, as they always had great respect for him. Many of those men would have been Samurai at some point. This war was part of the industrialization of Japan. Separating the old ways from the new.. or rather eliminating the old ways. They were only fighting because it is what they had to do. What they were ordered by their Emperor to do.. The Samurai were the enemy but they weren't actually the enemy. Also, in that culture there is respect among enemies.. in many cultures such is true.
"Dead to the last man!" You could've imagined Nathan as a very charismatic highschool history teacher.
You said it well: tears and emotions can come simply in recognizing something powerful or well done, as so much of this movie demonstrates.
One of my favourite films and, as others have said, one of Tom Cruises' best films. Ken Watanabe, as ever, is brilliant and it is his line at the end that is my favourite; 'They are all perfect' as he sees the cherry blossoms in the background and refers to his earlier line about a life spent searching for a perfect cherry blossom not being wasted.
When you cry in a movie like this, it means you have a good heart and soul. 🙏
Favorite part is final battle scene because it's very emotional. 😢
Love this film. The tranquil scenes in village aboutevery day chores is so beautifully shot and Hans Zimmer's music is so good even barely nothing happens you get almost spiritual fullfillment. The action scenes are simply amazing. This film just doesn't get enough credit what it does. I love Ken Watanabe's performance in this and Letters from Iwo Jima. Such amazing actor. Tom Did best role in this. Yes, I consider this even better than Maverick.
"This movie has Ninjas?!?!"
I love you!
Best reaction to this movie I have seen. Thank you for the upload, Kamilla. So glad you found this movie to be profound and powerful.
9:15
This ambush scene just capitalizes the point that technology isn’t everything.
A gun does not win in a battle when the soldiers using them are inexperienced and going against any enemy that is using more traditional weapons like bows and swords which have been mastered by the enemy for 100’s of years.
I'm not normally a Tom Cruise fan... Sure, in Top Gun, and a few other action movies, he's been great... but just generally, he doesn't have that much range. In THIS, he was absolutely PERFECT! Honestly one of his best roles! (I did THOROUGHLY enjoy Top Gun: Maverick also... in case you haven't seen both the original, and TG:Maverick - I recommend them both).
My favorite scene? Katsumoto dying in Algren's arms... saying of the cherry blossoms "They are ALL perfect...". Followed by the final scene with the Emperor... "I will tell you how he lived...".
A beautiful reaction to a beautiful film. Probably my favorite performance by Tom Cruise. As I think about the heritage of the Cherokee side of my family is can truly identify with Katsumoto's clan and the simplicity of there way of life. Such a rich and pure culture.
love your reactions Kamilla, you are the best and most honest, lovely, wholesome reactor i watch.
If you like this storyline the book Shogun by James Clavell is Amazing Stellar. Even over 1k pages I’ve re read it several times. Better love story, more in-depth look at Japanese society and Western of that time period. Cannot recommend enough.
Great reaction!
There was a Shogun mini series during the 80s. There will be an new version of the series coming out on FX. I dont know if they will keep any of the scenes I was in but I got to be one of the Samurai as an extra. Hiroyuki Sanada the guy who beats on Cruise is the Shogun in the series. I was on set with him a few times but never got to speak to him or anyone else. Apparently he spoke to another group during the same day of shooting earlier. We had a scene marching in the forest in the rain. I am hoping the show does well. We saw one short scene and I thought it looked amazing.
8:05
This scene brings a lot of joy to me, an Irishmen in the old Union uniform is just so appealing to me.
Where I live, Custer and the Battle of the Little Bighorn is very close..less than an hours drive away. Because of this we are very knowledgeable about Custer who was foolhardy and negligent in the death of himself and his entire complement.
As for my favorite part, I have 2. First, the scene where Alghren is comforting the little boy as he ready's himself for battle. The 2nd is when Alghren tells the emperor instead of telling him how he died, he will tell him how he lived. The words there were so powerful.
Too many powerful scenes and so many that invoke different emotions. The final battle where Algren and Katsumoto charges into Omura's position is very powerful. That scene shows why men fight against all odds to defeat evil knowing he could die in the process. Katsumoto's death is so moving that every man who sees that scene sheds a tear. That final act shows how he affected everyone around him and that even his enemies gave him respect.
Great reaction! My top 3 favorite Edward Zwick directed movies are Glory, Defiance, and The Last Samurai. I'd love to see reactions to the other two movies some time.
Letters from Iwo Jima would be another fantastic one. The Battle of Iwo Jima from the Japanese point of view. Definitely one Clint Eastwood's best works and also starring Ken Watanabe!
You explained that you were crying due to the powerful emotions of the scene. I am the same way. I explained to my friends that it was not so much tragic or sadness making me cry. It was the intensity of the scene / story / portrayal.
"I will tell you how he lived" is a gut punch, every time.
38:00 they fight because it is their duty to fight…They bow because they respect the Samurai and Honor them dying for what they believed was their duty
Such an amazing movie. One of my top 5. I can not watch the ending and keep a dry eye.
I was around 10 i saw the movie for the first time. Back then this movie was different because i learnd alot of honor, discipline and respect.
My favourite part was when they talked infront of the Cherry Blossom and Katsomoto said:" When i took these, you were my enemy". And the last scene were Algren said to the Kaiser: i´ll tell you, how he lived.
"Tell me how he died"
"I will tell you how he lived"
Gets me everytime❤💔
you are the first youtube channel to agree with me on this movie. It is by far the best movie I've ever seen from the plot to the acting it was absolutely beautiful.
the people who worked on this movie deserve their whole
22:43 that Samurai victory cry gets me going everytime
He was an alcoholic going through DT's...he didn't want a drink, he physically needed a drink. Fantastic reaction!!
I loved that you CONNECTED, such a powerful movie of honor n principles. They bowed down after mowing down Katsimoto because of his position to the emperor n his legendary status as the samaruri (sic) of samarai
The music is so powerful and beautiful. Loved your reaction.
I don’t think this movie is underrated because it is very well-known. But I do think it’s underrated as one of the best movies of all time. Also good on you, recognizing the ninjas who attacked the village. I think you’re the first person I’ve seen react to this movie that noticed that.
the thing i like about your reactions is that they are honest and not overreaction
20:39 ....."I've cried three times already".... The best is yet to come.....
They show respect at the end cause the Samurai were basically Japans army for hundreds of years, allowing generations to be born and live in relative peace for that countries government to then say they were obsolete and new armies/weaponry were the way forward. In that moment of seeing the last one die they remembered all of this and could do nothing except pay their last respects to the fallen.
Jo quierro when you cry that shows your big heart and you show your emotions ... and if you do this i start crying too ... please bring more of this reaction videos :*
From tears to a slight giggle "does he have a love interest in this movie"
One of the most intense films that I ever watched. So emotional, so violent, and yet so wholesome.
I don't necessarily agree with samurai honour, but I have immense respect for it.
One of my favourite films, but not one I watch often.
This movie has been in my top 10, POTENTIALLY top 5 fav of the past 30 years easily...
I love this movie so so much, I totally get you, I become emotional too every time I watch it, beautiful masterpiece of a movie… ♥️
It is once again absolutely amazing and fun to see your response on such a beautiful movie. Best reviewer on youtube by far, you're amazing.
" The perfect movie reviewer is a rare thing, you could spend your whole life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life."
I told you that you were going to love it!!!!
To me, best Tom's movie Ever and we all know he has a lot!!!
- Katsumoto: You believe a man can change his destiny?
- Algren: I think a man does what he can, until his destiny is revealed.
(That´s my favorite scene) Every time and then I think about this.
Feliz Año Bella!!!! 😘😘😘😘
what a wonderful reaction. You are so good at this. You didn't talk to death over the dialogues like some reactors do.
my favorite part is when she dresses him with the Samurai uniform. Is super romantic and kind of sensual, without almost any touching.
i realized, i watched this movie so many times, that even tough the subtitles are in a language i dont understand, i still understand the lines in japanese (another language i dont understand) XD like, i know exactly what they are saying in each of those moments
Thank you for explaining the tears during that first fight scene. :) While I agree it's a powerful and beautiful scene, I was a bit perplexed by the tears at that point. There certainly are several moments where I was in tears myself the first time watching this movie, but that wasn't one of them. ;) (But you explanation makes perfect sense.)
Yes in answer to your question around 15:00. If a samurai dies in battle it is a great honor. If defeated and not killed they will kill themselves because to live after a defeat causes them to lose honor. If you kill a samurai you are seen as a great warrior if it is fair combat. He is from a different culture so he did not kill himself after he was taken prisoner. This lead to him being able to see how they live.
This is a great movie. Definitely what a way to start the New Year. The best scene for me is Algren firing his weapon close to a Imperial soldier and asking him to shoot him just to prove his point to the Colonel that the Regiment has not achieved combat readiness yet.
I love it when he says’ when I first met you, you were my enemy’ perfect like for a perfect redemption story
