Saw the movie for the first time recently and found it very beautiful and moving. Yes, your description of it was very well done. Thank you for sharing. :-)
Glad you enjoyed this one. I watched it about two weeks back and loved it. Very slow paced and thoughtful film. I had never heard of it until I picked it up on the MoC sale a few weeks back but glad I came across it. I look foreword to checking out the rest of your marathon videos soon.
hey Tom, well done. i've enjoyed the movie, and have few people to discuss my love for japanese film with. your interpretation and enthusiasm come through and i appreciate your efforts here to enlighten us on the genre. thanks.
will crow Thank you sir! I am much the same- I have but one friend I can really discuss movies (and he has featured in the marathon as you may have seen).
One of my favorite all time films. Although not a Christian film, I consider it a spiritual film as the (to me) Holy Spirit touches the soldier and he is permanently changed. He now must fight the inward battle of returning home with his comrades or staying in Burma and tending to the dead. The film touches on camaraderie, homesickness , alienation,, and a higher calling. I’ve watched it many times snd never tire of it. And since it was made by the Japanese just 10 years after the end of the war makes it even more fascinating..

I remember seeing a harp that was played in the royal court. I wish I know how to play this. I also have to see this movie!
