That part where Zatoichi was in anguish after knowing he had just killed Sensei Hirate literally made me cry - it brought to light the reality of how sometimes fate can be so cruel … so very cruel. Sad. So very sad.
True. However Hirate was a dead man walking, Hirate knew this and wanted to die at the hands of someone with immense skill, this being the blind Swordsman Zatoichi, his friend, his only friend. Japan is a very unique place with a unique history. Warriors are an odd lot.
These (corrected "these") Japanese movies have always had a place in my heart, I used to watch them with my dad when I was a kid, he liked them too, the good acting, the mood of the movies, sweet and bitter like life. Excellent upload and well worth a like.
i had tears in my eyes......so intense acting.....thank you for sharing

Visited many Japanese cities during the course of work. 1964-2006. Have strong affection for Japanese culture, food, sports and friendship. Bought this whole series and viewed episode many times. I liked the small cities best.
Anyway I could pay for a copy from ya? Whole series! Been trying to get my son to get into it, too slow, my son haha! Hidden gem these are. Accidently came across thes3 and fell in love. Hard!
i wont say about the framing the close ups the music the story...but the scolding of Zatoichi to the yacuza boss was fenomenal in acting and in life lesson, love every second of all Zatoichi movies and series every bit of it is like a nail striking my hart and many times brings me in tears out of shame in my lifes mistakes that would avoid if i saw the movies earlier in my life ... thank you for the upload
I remember seeing movies featuring the blind samurai when I was in college some 60 years ago. Wonderful cinematography. I’ll watch everything in this channel.
I just bought the Criterion Collection BD Boxset Of Zatoichi The Blind Swordsman. It's truly a wonderful series, especially this 1st film Tale Of Zatoichi
So much irony. Two wise men, two good men. Thrust into conflict by the hoards of scoffers and scoundrels they serve. It’s the story of life that keeps repeating. If we don’t all learn from bushido our final lesson will be from the tip of the sword.
For me Shintaro Katsu is one of the greatest artists of all time. He was not only naturally gifted and traditionally taught, which is a bonus, but he always pushed the envelope, creating new and exciting genres in film and sound. There’s never going to be another like him
Two warriors who recognize each other in their mastery and show each other respect in a deadly labor of love! What could be more gracious and beautiful.
Thank you for posting this abridged version of a feature-length film. Your edits gave me enough long segments to appreciate the quality of an original I have never seen.
So sad, Sensei Hirate smiled when he found Ichi on the bridge. As if he is ready and eager to die to escape his ailing body. Even sadder, their conversation on the bridge actually in earnest between friends, not some made up words.
Not so rare amongst warriors, but in this era of humanity, true warriors are quite rare. Crossing blades was not personal, 2 professionals doing their jobs. It's bizarre to people who are not warriors but warriors it's not strange at all. The US Marines learned the heart of Imperial Japanese warriors and when August 1945 came, US Marines largely had immense respect for Japanese soldiers, they did not give up easy, and threw their lives away in a heartbeat for combat for some, others just saw orders.
This is quite the odyssey through times, beliefs and customs (however idealistic), that (in a now redundantly bizarre world of neurotic/pathological ideologies), generate far more authentic respect and thought than what contemporary "progressives(?)" would have us believe is "truth." A trained and ultra-skilled killer of men, Zatoichi nevertheless and forever retained his humanity. This is on full and simultaneous display in both his self-contradicting and self-wounding agreement and great reluctance to grant Hirate's final, existential wish; the desire to die bravely like a man and a warrior in a final and ultimate test of skill (however obvious, inevitable and fatal the outcome), instead of waiting for his illness to take him or being "slain by scoundrels." Such poignancy and appreciation for life when it's displayed and balanced against our mortality is almost never seen in film anymore. On a more technical level, I enjoyed the complete lack of blatantly artificial sound effects in the fight sequences when the blades cut their intended victims. It's a shame later movies universally employed such jarring theatrics. The only thing I might say against this clip is the editing. Throughout the temporal narrative (which in the film was no more than 48 hours) Zatoichi's head was practically shaved, but at the time of the fight, it had grown out about two weeks worth of hair. A mild, nitpicking point, but being a Japanese film, maybe it's like that blatantly but intentionally crooked pillar in an otherwise flawless tea-ceremony hut. A nod of awareness to the imperfections of life. And I'm not being intentionally pedantic, I've just been drinking vodka. Guess I should have had sake...
I spent the night watching what I was able to watch while of these Fantastic Zatoichi Movies while in Tokyo way back in 1973. Since then I have cherished each moment of rewatching everyone that I can find. It is a legend now as more and more people try to copy what he has created. So thank you and yes I do remember this movie being quite a bit longer than this version. But why bicker over the little things as Zatoichi would say. ha ha ha. Tiny bird dance over clear blue water. ha ha ha. I sing for you Ichi.
... I looked forward to Watching MONKEY in England in the 1980s, No VHS Recorder. The next morning in the School Playground we would imitate our Favourite Character PIGGSY Was Mine.... Greetings from Bradford West Yorkshire 🏴✌️ 11:38
Wow... I forgot about that scene. Looks so strange after having watched every episode of the TV series and all the movies. I'm so used to his rolling his eyes up. And I always wondered if that cause Shintaro any eye strain or pain. He probably did it so much it didn't hurt anymore.
29:30 Master Hirate simply didn't attack at this point although he easily could have, because all he wanted was to die at the hands of Zatoichi instead of those scoundrels.
There is film of Hattate Miki before this encounter with Zatoichi Detailing his life in Edo and his journey to Sagawasa. I don't see Tale of Zatoichi with english subtitles on you tube anymore
The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
I love this ,but where to watch more of this black and white versions? They were on the Net, but now I can't find them???? I was grow up watching them and have a lot of nice memories.

@@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto こんな言葉があります。武士の生きざまを表した、言葉で、「剣に生き、剣に死す」、平手はまさに文字通りの死にざまでした。勝つのが分かってたのに敢えて、戦った市さんは、切腹のときの介錯と同じだと思います。平手さんに、武士らしい最後を迎えさせてあげたのだと思います。
@@rusantmandewaowaranay1261 Thank you for that insight it made it so much more meaningful.
This is brilliant. One of the best of a fantastic series.
These (corrected "these") Japanese movies have always had a place in my heart, I used to watch them with my dad when I was a kid, he liked them too, the good acting, the mood of the movies, sweet and bitter like life. Excellent upload and well worth a like.
These films are absolute works of art!!!
Agreed. You can find the explanation of these characters in the book of Nietzsche: Twilight of idols.
Lo son con justificada razón.
Absolutely.
I agree. Have seen all of the Zatoichi films. I Love the scenes of Humor as well. Pure Gold!
2024年11月16日視聴😊
I was 15 years old in 1972 when I found out about Zatioichi. Hooked ever since. I have all the movies and 1/2 of the TV series. Love them.
座頭市と平手造酒。凄い凄すぎる‼️有難うございます。
釣り場で一緒になった時 波長が合ったんだと思います 二人とも過去は謎に包まれているが 友達ができたんですよね 両者とも本当は寂しくやっていたと思ってみると こんな切ない話しあるんかなと感じました
I must have watched all of these. The best films ever.
天知茂さんの今にも壊れそうな
儚げな繊細さのある雰囲気。
勝新太郎さんの鬼気迫る感情が
昂る様な演技力。
風さえも切り捨てそうな殺陣。
「座頭市物語」は、
どれ程の長い年月が流れても、
消して枯れ果てる事のない
大名作の映画作品だと思います。
These were all great stories, very underrated, very well made. I didn’t discover them until the 1990’s and was hooked.
この高貴で儚い雰囲気。音楽だけでなく、一つ一つの小さな物音迄もがもの哀しい。素晴らしい名作で、大好きです。勝新万歳。

thank you so much for posting this movie. I'm a very big shintaro katsu fan and have tried to find this movie for a long time🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
What marvelous outside frames!
The one when the boats arrive is pure genius!
i wont say about the framing the close ups the music the story...but the scolding of Zatoichi to the yacuza boss was fenomenal in acting and in life lesson, love every second of all Zatoichi movies and series every bit of it is like a nail striking my hart and many times brings me in tears out of shame in my lifes mistakes that would avoid if i saw the movies earlier in my life ... thank you for the upload
Shintaro Katsu plays Zatoichi great in all his movies.😊
❤yes .he is wonderful
これは第一作目ですよね 最高傑作だと思います
釣り目かっこいい天地さん今の俳優が出せない、渋さ虚しさが出ています、これを引き継いだ日本の俳優はいない、新たに
I remember seeing movies featuring the blind samurai when I was in college some 60 years ago. Wonderful cinematography. I’ll watch everything in this channel.
I just bought the Criterion Collection BD Boxset Of Zatoichi The Blind Swordsman. It's truly a wonderful series, especially this 1st film Tale Of Zatoichi
座頭市はサムライでは無くファミリーに入っていない盲目のヤクザです。

9:23 "So no more killing today. Not even fish."
"I agree."
I love drink scene.
For me Shintaro Katsu is one of the greatest artists of all time. He was not only naturally gifted and traditionally taught, which is a bonus, but he always pushed the envelope, creating new and exciting genres in film and sound. There’s never going to be another like him

Watch this movie from long ago and still keep watching
Like the way he acts and it’s fantastic

どちらもよい役者です。今はもう無い。虚しい。
勝新太郎のこの凄みは一体どっから来るねん‼️
いいものを観させてもらった。ありがとうよ。座頭市を観たのは、久しぶりでした。
ちょいとめぇのRUclipsにゃ、なんと全シリーズフルでUPされてたもんでさぁｗ
チャンネルごとジェノサイドされちめえやしたがねｗ
天知茂も若くして亡くなり残念😢日本の映画も良い役者は、みな亡くなり映画館で観る値打ちもない役者ばかりとなり衰退の一途を辿っている🌟
歳の せいか 泣けてくる。 天知茂さん 勝新太郎さん どうか 来世でもご活躍を‼️
30半ばですが涙が止まりませぬ
@@D_Warme あなたは心優しい人ですね😃
晴天の下、中空に浮くひばりの鳴き声を聞くでもなく棹をさす宿命のふたり、日本映画屈指の名場面。
Ichi, the blind swordsman. The legend was told to me long ago by a wise friend.
心の通じ合った人と真剣勝負・・・、つらいなあ・・・。
This is my favorite episode. I haven't seen it in years!
I’m looking for the full episode
天地茂さん非情のライセンスの撮影で何度もお会いしました。眉間に皺を寄せながら挨拶されるお顔を思い出します。
平手が宿で酒を飲むシーンで型を見せますが田宮流居合の基本形でした。
この「座頭市物語」と「座頭市血煙り街道」が好きで何度も観たなぁ。
好きな作品です。観られてよかったです！
座頭市シリーズの中でも、天知さんとの本篇は最高です🎉
Which one is that?
時代劇なんだけど、これを制作した頃の古き良き日本が反映されている良い映画だね。
こう言うのを、撮影してもちゃんと商業に乗って居たんだね。
古き良き日本、いい言葉だな。
美しいですね。素晴らしいです。
I like Zatoichi. His act has been the best to me.
This is a clip from a cinema movie from the early sixties , it’s a pity I can’t find the entire movie anymore only clips it’s a great film
Criterion has almost the entire film series available for streaming with subscription.
カッコ良すぎる。時代劇で一番好きだわ。
構図とか所作とか要素は色々あるんやろうけど
俺全然タイムリーじゃない世代だけど今見ても普通に引き込まれる
I grew up with "cowboy westerns" This was exceptional.
Finally Mr. Hirate acknowledged the skill of Swordsman ship owned by his regular masseuse after being proven by the fight on the bridge .. 👍🤩🙏
セリフのセンスがすごく良いですね。
史実として有名な話、飯岡組、笹川一家、そして平手造酒。大スター美波春夫も歌っていた。座頭市モノでは最高傑作。
Rare friendship.
Not so rare amongst warriors, but in this era of humanity, true warriors are quite rare. Crossing blades was not personal, 2 professionals doing their jobs. It's bizarre to people who are not warriors but warriors it's not strange at all.

いい時代劇だ。懐かしい。勝新が一番若い時の座頭市らしい。兵隊やくざもいいが、座頭市が一番だね。

天知茂懐かしい。何とも言えぬ男の味がある。
座頭市シリーズの、これが最高傑作？
天知茂さんが見事
どちらも 最高です。
Shintaro Katsu fue un gran actor.
All of the original Zatoichi movies were on RUclips and now they are gone. All that is left is the tv series. What happened?
柳永二郎、天地茂の魅力につきます。最高です。
日本の宝ですね
矜持って言葉をかんがえさせられるんだよな座頭市は
カッコ良過ぎる

ゴジラも、この座頭市も、第一作が始まりにして頂点。
同じ事を書こうとしたら既にあった。
One of the saddest of all the Zato films.
62'「座頭市物語」は天知茂さんとの共演で第一作目でした。
当時はまだ白黒作品で、後にTV時代劇としてフジTVでシリーズ化されました。
今では“目眩”は放送禁止用語ですので、地上波では放送されないのです。
寂しい限りです。
重厚で素晴らしい
Zato no Ichi, man of valor,man of honour ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
He walks by the old yakuza code. I've seen them all in color and his brother is Lone Wolf of lone wolf and cub, best ever.
