Description:
In the civil wars of 16th century Japan, two ambitious peasants want to make their fortunes. The potter Genjuro intends to sell his wares for vast profits in the local city, while his brother-in-law Tobei wishes to become a samurai.

Movies the giraffe watched in 2021: February (25 movies items)"First viewing - Feb. 10th This was a really interesting and entertaining look at how greed can affect people, and especially the pursuit of wealth by those who have never had it. Thematically it's on par with Treasure of the Sierra Madre, but I wouldn't ever have an issue with getting the two films mixed up in my mind. The cast is good all around and I connected with the characters well enough. I don't know that I'd need to watch it again, but it's absolutely worth a look."

Watched films in 2020 (97 movies items)"30.10. DVD Uusintakatselu. On kyllä miellyttävä huomata, kuinka se sama pitkälti selittämätön magia, kuin jotain 15 vuotta sitten, on yhä mukana. Jo hyvin varhaisesta vaiheesta harrastusta Ugetsu on "kulkenut mukana" ja ollut näitä suurimpia suosikkeja, mutta vain vähäisillä katselukerroilla. Nyt taisi olla vasta kolmas kerta. Mizoguchin tapa luoda lähes jokainen kohtaus yhden oton varaan, yhdessä huikean kameratyön kanssa saa aikaan aivan käsittämättömän hienon ja tiiviin"
