Description
[Machine Translation] Kurosawa and Mifune. This encounter changed Japanese cinema! Akira Kurosawa and Toshiro Mifune. They were undoubtedly two of the most respected Japanese filmmakers in the world at the time, and this is the monumental film that started their famous duo. The black market is filled with the feverish postwar reconstruction, and there is a town with a ditch and a pond. Sanada, a doctor with a crude clinic there, and Matsunaga, a yakuza on the market who is suffering from a lung ailment. The two men meet when they treat Matsunaga for a gunshot wound. They see each other's deep-seated weakness and strength as if they were mirrors, and despite their mutual opposition, they try to cure his pulmonary tuberculosis. However, the town changes drastically when Matsunaga's brother, Okada, returns to the town, and Matsunaga's health deteriorates and he is trapped in a dead-end situation. Mifune shines like a knife without a blade, and Takashi Shimura is irresistible, both in his bad-assery and his goodness. The characters, the story, the circumstances of the times, the edges of everything depicted in the film stand out with a gleam. This one film changed Japanese cinema, or rather Japan's postwar period!
