Shizukanaru kettô (1949)
A duel within oneself...
20 November 2022 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
What a chaotic but hopeful ending! We almost never leave the hospital. But the sadness within Kyoji (played by Toshirô Mifune) itself very much takes you away, so much that I had to pause the movie at a certain point, and think about what would happen or rather how would I feel if I were in his place. Of course I wouldn't be this engaged in this thought if it wasn't for Toshirô Mifune's acting. And what an amazing actor he is. Also, the scene between Kyoji and his father (played by the great Takashi Shimura) was very sweet and touching. This terrific early work of Kurosawa should definitely be seen by more people.
