Dersu Uzala is an another masterpiece

I watched this film in 2015, I think. Ever since then, it's been stuck at the back of my head like a splinter. It must have influenced my decision to ditch the university (in 2017) and pursue my dream of becoming an artist. For several years I would stay up and practice until morning, alone, in an apartment closely resembling the Paper Street House, with my friends and relatives constantly poking fun at me. Since then I've actually started making money off of my skills and I'll be purchasing a new home within the next two years. And I know Kurosawa's masterpiece had always been there in my memory, reminding me to never trade living for what the society considers happiness.

That’s amazing, hope you are keeping forward.

I lost my leg to cancer when I was 19 and did a year of gruelling chemotherapy. I have a very different and brave outlook on life now. Some things are so inconsequential and hence I have no fear, I have no anxiety, for I know it all fades away as I do when I return to ash. This human life is so tormented and constantly ravaged by small things which seem grand at the time and yet are so petty. If I am to live, I live for a meaning, not a hunk of flesh and bone but I wish to strive for something lasting, something which satisfies the natural human soul. I have become so much more open, relaxed, cunning and unafraid to reach out. When we deconstruct these ideas of human interaction, it's all so hilariously simple and yet so few of us do it. Perhaps much like seemingly monotonous university assignments, man only truly feels the weight of potential regret, when he is given a deadline.

No doubt!

Kurosawa’s main draw is samurai films, but you stay for the humanity that’s on display. And nothing in the world is more human than Ikiru

I tend to watch analysise and videos of films I really enjoy after I finish them, and since this is the one I'm starting with, I'd just like to give my take on the film. The thing that caught me off-guard with Ikiru was how the funeral was presented. At first it seemed a bit much going back and forth between Watanabe's final days and the people reminiscing, but that's when I realised that this movie wasn't just about clinging to life, it was about resting in death. It's split down the middle, between an old man trying to find some gleam of purpose to make up for lost time, and then immediately cutting him short at his hottest moment. The fact that the "death" chapter of Ikiru, if you will, exists at all is proof enough that in death Watanabe managed to accomplish something. It's not just a corporate formality, his actions had weight even once he was gone, which shows itself in the final, hopeful scene of the movie. Another thing I'd like to mention is Watanabe as a person. Call it symbolism if you want, but something I noticed was the scale of Watanabe throughout parts of the film. Take, for example, when he's partying in the city. He's seemingly having the time of his life, feeling as if this is what it means to truly live. But even still, he's surrounded by people. Sometimes you can't even tell where he is in a huge crowd, because despite being in a euphoric state he's still just one of many fleeting heads. And then, he starts to sing. And suddenly, everyone goes silent, the moment is fixated on him. In his confidence, or possibly lack thereof, he starts to live even if the young people around him might not understand. This symbolism is also shown in other scenes, like when Watanabe remains stood up to cheer on his son in baseball, without noticing everyone else is seated, but you get the idea. Good filmmaking. Experiencing all life has to offer in his final days. Neon lights, pretty girls, jazzy music, and yet his confidence only shows when he's staring down some thugs in some hallway, or begging a deputy mayor to reconsider a proposal. It's not glamorous, it's not the blaze of glory people imagine when asked "What would you do if you only had six months left to live?" And yet, for Watanabe, it's everything he's ever wanted; true happiness. After all, being mortal is not about what you do in life, but what you do on death. Finally, I'd just quickly like to mention the actor: Takashi Shimura. This has got to be one of the most believable depictions of a character I have ever seen. In honesty, he reminded me of my late grandfather in his final weeks. Almost like he hated to be a burden, and yet never relied on taking pity on himself. Shimura has the eyes of a man who knows he is close to death but keeps living because that's all he knows how to do. I miss my grandfather, and almost ashamedly, I never cried at his passing. But, with this film it felt like I was looking at him one more time. I never incorporate sentimentality into my opinions on a film, or what rating I think it deserves, because to be frank I never have much of an attachment to movies in general. But, even with that in mind I believe this is one of the best films I have ever watched. It's really brilliant.

I saw this movie back in 2010, I had put off college two years before to deal with what I wanted in life and my father’s out of the blue death. Watching the movie got me to enjoy the smaller things in life but also pursue what made me happy. Life is never fully done with us though, and there are other lessons to learn.

One of the most incredible movies I sat through it’s my 2nd favourite movie of all time it blew me away and shows Kurosawas talents stretch further than samurai movies

@elkhaos514

2 жыл бұрын

What is the 1st one?

My personal favorite part of the film is how Kurosawa admits that the message of the movie is not something everyone will respond to. Watanabe's coworkers are impassioned at his funeral, ready to step up and start making real change while they're all still alive. The next scene shows them all back at work, weeks later, doing the same old time wasting. Except, there's one worker who stands up in outrage. He looks around at his coworkers, who are all ignoring or forgetting the epiphanies they had while drunk at the funeral. If this film's message speaks to you but not the people around you, then that coworker is YOU. You, the viewer, are a character in this movie. Do not forget the message and go back to time wasting. Go out and live.

I came across this film for the same reason - a brush with cancer, I still do experience it on and off as that's the sad thing about cancer is it likes to try and come back. I thought at one point I would die from it and fell into a hole of sadness not wanting to get out. This film changed my life and changed my attitude for the better. I rewatch this movie annually to remind myself to live and that so quickly life can be taken away without a moments notice. Beautiful summary of my favourite film, I couldn't have described it better if I tried

Awesome review!! I watched Ikiru for the first time when I was in my teens and never forgot it. I try to watch it once a year and learn something new from it each time. For me this is the Japanese version of Its a Wonderful Life. Watching the ending makes me feel the same way when I saw the famous “Tears in rain” speech in Blade Runner. Makes you realize there is much more to life than living day to day without changing peoples live. You are an accumulation of everyone you have ever interacted with during your life. The way you treat people is the same way they will remember you once you pass. This film represents this to me and ensures I never forget that.

Ikiru and Rashomon to me was life change completely changed my views of the world and people. I am thankful I am no longer the negative, toxic, hateful person I was years ago there are many aspects of it in me still but it is something I am trying to improve.

One of the best films ever

Thank you for this profound gift. Subscribed. I'm sorry to hear you have dealt with Cancer as well, and I hope you're healthy now and doing well. I, too, have found that the act of Creation gave me the motivation to live so I became a Storyteller. That scene from Fight Club changed me when I first saw it, I never forgot it. I can hear the raw emotion and truth in your voice, thank you for opening your heart and for having the courage to follow your dreams and show others it's possible. Blessings from Jerusalem, fellow traveler, may your stars shine bright and illuminate the world.

Thank you very much for this well put together video you uploaded. This movie was a life changer for me and all other 8 times I seen it. Just watching your recap is warming like this movie. Ikiru and many other movies like this is how I pick out my friends, and those I will spend my time with. They don't have to cry like me during movie... I tell them just take a break from what is not adding to our experience and watch this. U have added another video to my list to help me sort out my friends from those who need to be no more than just acquaintances. Thank you

I have loved this movie for long and recommended it to a friend today. Just discovered this review and recommended it, too. Many thanks for your in-depth descriptions and explanations.

As much as I love "The bad sleep well at night" as well as "High and low" this is my favorite Kurosawa movie. The way it's shot, the soundtrack, the message every last minute of this movie is just amazing.

Ever since I watched Breaking Bad, I liked citing Ikiru as a possible inspiration for the show. Then I re-watched this video and it occurred to me that this would make one of my favorite shows of all time one of the many things inspired by Akira Kurosawa like Star Wars and Fistful of Dollars. Now that's badass. Major Spoilers for Breaking Bad Below: I like seeing Kanji Watanabe and Walter White as two sides of the same coin. Where Kanji Watanabe used his deadline to do good, Walter White ended up doing bad and causing harm to people around him. However, I do think a little bit of Ikiru's message still rings true at the end of the series. When Walter White had nothing left to lose, he pulled one last trick up his sleeve and tried to right the wrongs he made by admitting his selfishness to Skyler, avenging his brother in law and saving Jesse Pinkman. When Walter White finally dies, he dies content, knowing that in the end, he did what he could and for him that was enough. It's for that reason why I think the ending to Breaking Bad is the greatest finale in television history and I could even see a little bit of it in the final episode of Gravity Falls where Grunkle Stan sacrifices himself. This is why I love Akira Kurosawa so much. Some people say that the greatest artists steal, but I personally disagree. I think the best astists are the ones who take inspiration and inspire others. Kurosawa took inspiration from other artists and made many masterpieces which inspired more artists to make their own masterpieces. EDIT: Now that I think about it, I wonder if Stanley Kubrick saw Ikiru before making a lot of his movies in two halves.

Thank you for this great presentation of Ikiru. For me too is one of most important pieces of art I saw, a life changer. Being interested in Heidegger, Nietzsche, Nishida, Nishitani, Zen andTao.. this film makes a great contribution to converge all. Your presentation makes Ikiru easier to understand and more attractive to important philosophical questions.

The reward for doing the right thing at the right time is doing the right thing at the right time.

SPOILER ALERT This film got me after many years of burnout to suddenly feel a drive to work on my game business again. I went into this movie hoping to see the main character find some interesting purpose after obviously quitting his dead end job. I was caught completely by surprise that after all the searching for something to do after his diagnosis the main character had the epiphany to return to his job and actually just really do it! This influenced me to reconsider what i always felt was obvious, that if i was gonna die then obviously id stop working on my game app business cause what's the point. Now instead i feel like holy fuck i gotta create some awesome games before i die, my work is all that would remain after i die. Maybe if i was really gonna die then going full on into my game work would be the most meaningful thing to do. There's other things too in this movie that made me think, but the fact he went back to his job is what surprised me the most and made me change my perspective on how i viewed things. It's like this film helped feel like i wanted to leave my mark in society even if something as meaningless as making games, because in the movie the girl got a job in a factory making robot bunnies and yet was so happy, so if that can feel meaningful somehow, then why not my games too. It's kind of like if im gonna die then who cares if its just games im making, im gonna make something awesome and that's that. I never thought a movie would change my life.

One of the lessons i got is watanabe realize the importance of happiness in childhood and I think that Was the reason and source of dedication he build it and ofcourse the importance and apreciation of life. In the story when he was a child that he almost drowned yet his parents is far away for me the movie indicates that hes parents is away from him and he has a dpressing childhood. That’s why toyo rabbit toy motivates him to make the younger generation appreciate childhood and life. I think it explains the ending scene of the movie when the park is full of kids playing.

Have to say the song he sings has some really good inversion of similar scenes with he in the bar versus him on the swing. In the bar in his attempts to live the life he thought he lost he sings the song as a bitter affirmation of his impending death with that kind of life being shown as vacuous and as meaningless as when he’s inert in his office job. It isn’t until after he’s lived a life he found purpose in with the swing scene that he can sing that song as a way to affirm the brief but meaningful life he’s lived moments before his death with the officer who found him even remarking that though his corpse was cold when he found him he looked as though he had been at peace in his final moments contrasting the weight and sorrow of that song’s meaning in the bar leaving him broken as a person.

It reminded me so much of the Yasujiro Ozu style of films, which tells a story about our mundane lives but looks more closely at them to reveal the intricacies of living. To be honest, I wasn't aware Kurosawa made such films, I thought his films were mostly large epic-style stories. I did notice a few actors in Ikiru who were also in some of Ozu's films. I wonder what Ozu thought of this film since it was so close to his storytelling.

This broken system makes it so that we sacrifice our precious time to be able to provide and nothing is more precious than our time on this planet.

Breaking bad share only one part of that story: the premise of being sick but unlike ikiru Breaking bad is about something devoting the rest of his life to making something bad instead of something good.

I can tell you're not Japanese, so just helping. It's not "Wa-TAH-na-be". It's _Wa-ta-NAH-be._ Here's another pointer: The Romanization of Japanese has one glaring mistake. The letter L should be used instead of R. James Hepburn oddly used Rs when he should've used Ls. The proper pronunciation is "I-ki-LU", not I-ki-Ru. La-men, not Ra-men. La-sha-mon, not Ra-sha-mon, Lan, not Ran, La-di-o, not Radio...

Thanks I appreciate that. That should help me in future videos!

The movie "Living" is complete plagiarism. This should be more common knowledge.
