“he's hot both in 'local out of his depth idiot mode' and 'over the top romantic hero mode'. he fences like nobody's business. he's the only man of all time to pull off a jester outfit and make it look actually snatched. Danny Kaye needs this, please.”

“He has some lines that go hard Saburo Naotora Ichimonji: "...What kind of world do we live in? One barren of loyalty and feeling." Hidetora: "I'm aware of that." Saburo Naotora Ichimonji: "So you should be! You spilled an ocean of blood. You showed no mercy, no pity. We too are children of this age... weaned on strife and chaos. We are your sons, yet you count on our fidelity. In my eyes, that makes you a fool. A senile old fool!" Saburo Naotora Ichimonji: "Does a traitor betray himself?"

Akira Kurosawa’s “乱” (Ran) May 31, 1985.
Wie dem König Lear mißglückt dem japanischen Kriegsherrn Hidetora Ichimonji die Übergabe der Macht an seine 3 Nachkommen (in diesem Fall Söhne) ziemlich grundlegend. Es kommt zu Chaos und Unruhen (”Ran”) und ist zum Wahnsinnigwerden, und in schönster Shakespeare-Dramen-Tradition sind nach allerlei Schlachten, Gemetzeln und Gemeinheiten am Ende alle tot.
Kagemusha, 1980 Dir. Akira Kurosawa
