The post Kazuo Mori – Aru koroshi ya AKA A Certain Killer (1967) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

January 1905, Manchuria. The Russo-Japanese War has been going on for nearly a year. The Japanese has just dealt the Russians a notable blow by capturing Port Arthur. The end seems to be in sight but the Japanese themselves are in the blink of collapse as their manpower and resources are stretched to the full. Preparing a final showdown with the Russians, the Japanese sends Lieutenant Tatekawa and 5 soldiers on a scout mission. They are to go behind the Russian lines for information of their subsequent plans. These 6 get what they need, but the essential and toughest part is to make it back.

Akira Kurosawa wrote the script in 1943, in the middle of WWII. Although the script as used here was thoroughly revised (with help from Hideo Oguni), the original version clearly mirrors the state that the Japanese were in at that time in WWII, and what lesson is to be learnt. Instead of encouraging reckless action and stupid sacrifices, this story emphasizes the need to stay alive in order to complete the mission ahead. Such cowardly-looking bravery is also the theme of The Men Who Tread on the Tiger’s Tail, which was completed and directed by Kurosawa around the end of WWII.

The post Kazuo Mori – Nemuri Kyôshirô engetsu sappo AKA Sleepy Eyes of Death 13: Full Moon Swordsman (1969) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Quote:
The film begins with an explosive action scene where a lone samurai fights and slays dozens of enemy swordsmen, but that is neither the story nor what happened. Mataemon Araki, a legendary samurai and the subject of many a tale and film adaptations, is instead a cunning strategist and can deploy strategy and patience alongside his command of the blade. Here he helps set a trap in order to exact revenge for one who mourns.
