A fine, refreshing review. It’s always good to see someone else so moved by art that the tears are impossible to hold back. Then I know I’m not alone in this. I recently watched “Sullivan’s Travels” for the first time in my life. It may be the only movie where I have both cried and laughed hard simultaneously at the end of it. “Seven Samurai” and many of the greats have a deepening effect on me with repeated viewings over time.
The paper doesn't say he's 65, it says he's 13. It's important because it means the samurai it belonged it from was killed at 13 years of age or much younger probably. It subtly tells us that the samurai are also sometimes victims.
Thank you for sharing an emotional response to this amazing film. Far from 'humiliating', your review was obviously very heartfelt, as well as touching on the primary theme of the story. Well-done. :)
Thank god the movie doesn't share the same lack of energy as this speaker. He's emotionally affected by it, which is great, but for newcomers to the movie I think he short changes how exhilarating it is by being so laid back in discussing it.
I can feel his emotion talking about the film. I felt the same way when I first watched it.
I say if its art that moves you - any art - tell everyone who'll listen.
Anyone who's a movie fan can agree this is an all time masterpiece!
You did not humiliate yourself, Sir. Respect. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🇦🇺
Hugs for Jim ❤

Jim Cummings. The Wolf of Snow Hollow. Loved it
Beautiful, excellent capsule of a tough to synopsize masterpiece. Bravo.

The movie was released in 1954. Thats why it's celebrating its 70th anniversary this year in 2024.
Lovely review, not at all humiliating. Cheers!
Sooo…not the voice actor Jim Cummings?
