Based on 1570's Feudal Japan, this historical epic was a masterpiece of its time. Akira Kurosawa was near the end of his career, and hadn't made a film in some time, but this was his valiant return with the Film Kagemusha: the Shadow Warrior. The film almost never seen the light of day if it weren't for the Western counterparts to cover the remaining budget and distribution.Based on the true events Takeda Shingen and his clan, this film delves into the historical aspects of the era and the politic behind it. The famous warlord dies to an assassin of one of the competing factions, but one of his last requests was to keep the appearance that he was alive for the sake of the clan. The top generals of this clan seek out a shadow warrior or counterfeit Shingen to play the roll of the warlord. Many competing clans are fighting for power, and suspect he may be dead, but are unable to say for certain.Directed by Akira Kurosawa, with George Lucas, and Francis Ford Coppola and starring Tatsuya Nakadai.

Der Mönch und Liedermacher Shingen Jan Gaensslen hat mit dem Liedermacher und Mönch Leonard Cohen Jikan zusammengelebt und erklärt, wie sich in den späten Songs wie „Going Home“ und „Love Itself“ Zen-Weisheiten finden. „Du musst lernen zu sterben, bevor du stirbst“, ist so ein Grundsatz, und das angestrebte Gefühl von Zuhausesein geht sowieso immer wieder verloren. Kann da die Meditation helfen? „Das Leiden ändert sich nicht, sondern das Bezugssystem ändert sich, und dadurch ändert sich das Leiden eben doch.“ So erklärt es Shingen in einer ausgesprochen freundlichen Art. Wir entdecken offene Geheimnisse in den Songs von Cohen und spüren einen stillen Humor, denn man kann schließlich nicht für immer im Himmel leben, weil es da „keine Toiletten und keine Restaurants gibt“.

In 2011, Marvel Entertainment teamed with Japanese animation studio Madhouse on a set of four 12-episode anime series, each featuring Marvel superheroes sent on adventures in Japan. Each overseen by problematic comic superstar Warren Ellis, the shows were a unique blend of traditional Marvel tales with anime sensibilities. As these shows have recently been added to US Netflix streaming, we figured it's a perfect time to take a look at one of those series, WOLVERINE, which sees Logan trying to save his love, Mariko, from Shingen, her crime-lord father, and Hideki, an evil gangster she is being forced to marry. How does the series stack up against other Wolverine adaptations, and X-Men stories in general? We offer our thoughts.

On a ressorti le film Kagemusha !On change de pays et même d’époque tant qu’à faire. Bienvenue dans Kagemusha l'ombre du guerrier d'Akira Kurosawa. Accrochez-vous parce qu’on va se marrer ou se perdre (c’est selon).Japon, XVIème siècle, une féroce guerre des clans divise l’archipel. L’un des plus puissants est le clan Takeda mené par le leader charismatique et quasi vénéré Shingen. Il rêve de prendre la capitale, Kyoto et ainsi devenir seigneur du pays. Mais lors de l’assaut du château de Noda il est mortellement blessé. Il fait alors passer un ordre un peu spécial pour sauvegarder son clan. Le frère de Shingen met dont en place un stratagème pour respecter la volonté de son frère. Il va utiliser un banal voleur comme doublure, l’idée semble étrange au départ mais ce dernier est le sosie parfait du seigneur défunt. Mais le Kagemusha (guerrier de l’ombre en japonais) n’a que le physique de commun avec le chef de clan. Sa présence et son allure manquent plusieurs fois de le faire démasquer mais il apprendra vite la vérité sur son rôle. Il comprendra dès lors, l’importance de sa mission quand il découvrira la vérité et réussira a bluffer les espions ennemis, le petit fils, les concubines et même ceux qui sont dans la confidence !Mais autant chez l’ennemi que dans le clan, des manigances se préparent dans l’ombre…Le film s’ouvre sur un plan unique, fixe et statique de six minutes. On nous présente ici Shingen Takeda, son frère, Nobukado et un voleur qui vient d’échapper à la peine de mort. La ressemblance flagrante entre lui et le seigneur Takeda pourrait bien servir au clan. Tatsuya Nakadai jouant les deux rôles (celui de Shingen et du Kagemusha) le plan est évidement un astucieux trucage. En VF pour accentuer la différence deux comédiens diffèrent doubleront chacun des personnages ; à savoir les talentueux Pierre Hatet et Marc De Georgi.Tatsuya Nakadai a la dure tache d’incarner la figure historique de Shingen Takeda, mais aussi sa doublure. Ce qui pour un acteur traditionnel ne serait pas chose aisé mais Nakadai était un véritable caméléon pouvant tout jouer et étant méconnaissable film après film. Son talent l’avait même fait devenir petit à petit le remplaçant de Toshiro Mifune comme acteur fétiche de Kurosawa. Et si vous le cherchez aujourd’hui, le bougre n’est pas mort, il est au casting du film d’animation Le Conte de la princesse Kaguya, un film récemment réalisé par le grand Isao Takahata.Kagemusha permis à son auteur, âgé à l’époque de 70 ans, d’avoir enfin la reconnaissance internationale qu’il méritait, et rafler au passage la Palme D’or à Cannes en 1980. Mais au prix de quelques concessions. N’arrivant pas à obtenir le budget nécessaire pour son projet, Kurosawa se tourna vers la peinture pour raconter son histoire. Ces peintures servirent à convaincre ses deux plus grands fans, George Lucas et Francis F.Coppola, de produire son film (rien que ça !). Ces peintures serviront également de story-board et on peut dire que ça se voit ; de par le foisonnement de couleurs omniprésentes, visibles sur les costumes authentiques. Mais aussi par la photographie, les scènes de bataille couvertes d’éclairs rouge feu ou la célèbre scène du rêve qu’on croirait tout droit sortie de l’imaginaire torturé d’un aliéné.Bon après, ce n’est peut-être pas le plus épique des films de genre qu’on pourrait voir. Il suffit de regarder Les 7 Samouraïs pour s’en rendre compte, mais il est bon de nuancer cela au regard de la scène de batailles finale tournée en deux mois et inspirée de la véritable bataille de Nagashino de 1575.Pour conclure, notons que la Bande Originale du film est composée par Shinishiro Ikebe. Au final, que dire de ce film, qui n’a pas déjà été dit, film magistral, avec sa mise en scène extraordinaire. Les superlatifs manquent, donc pour conclure je dirais bêtement « Uwasa wo Sureba Kage » ! Comprenne qui pourra…Retrouve tous les podcasts du Cinéma Avec Un Grand A sur les plateformes de podcasts:

In the Sekogu period, Japan was divided into a large number of small provinces, each ruled by powerful daimyo and all at war with each other. Two of the most important daimyo were Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin. They seemed to constantly match each other. Takeda Shingen was known as the Tiger of Kai, while Uesugi Kenshin was the Dragon of Echigo. On a mountain plain known as Kawanakajima, the island between the rivers, they met in battle repeatedly. The Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima was their biggest and most well remembered engagement. Shingen had 20,000 men, while Kenshin held 18,000. Shingen took the first strategic move, sending a few thousand men toward the Uesugi forces to surprise them at night, forcing them into his main army's crane wing formation. Instead, Kenshin moved his troops toward the Takeda force first, with what was known as the winding wheel. This whirling formation kept fresh troops in the vanguard, and placed Kenshin in Shingen's tent. Shingen could only parry Kenshin's sword thrusts with his war fan. In the end, Uesugi Kenshin was driven back by Takeda bodyguards. The battle was astonishingly bloody, frustratingly inconclusive, and instantly legendary.

The Wolverine. The breakout character from the first X-Men movie was clearly Wolverine and because of this he was explored in the dismal X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Even though the film did not do well with the critics or the audience, the character remained a favorite and ripe for another chance in a solo adventure. In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by Megan Calcote to discuss The Wolverine. We talk about using rotten tomatoes, a curse or a blessing, who is Logan, two women, the villains, action, blood and violence, the Silver Samurai, speculation and our ratings.

Probably more appropriately titled "What do Chris and Forest philosophize about what can really be known about history", here is our 4th bonus episode of what was originally meant to be a stand-alone podcast on the Samurai Archives podcast network.  In this heavily opinionated episode, things get touchy as Chris and Forest get in a philosophical discussion about what can really be known about history. As always with our bonus episodes, the opinions expressed are solely those of Chris and Forest, and do not in any way reflect the opinions of any other hosts or guest to this point or going forward. Japanese history can be particularly questionable in the situations where the only sources available are select pieces of contemporary correspondences and writings compiled 100 years or more after the events they describe, and often the only sources available are war tales, fictionalizations, and hagiography. Your hosts look at various events in Japanese history, including the 4th battle of Kawanakajima, the death of Nobunaga, and the questionable existence of Yamamoto Kansuke to discuss what we know, what we think we know, and what we really don't know about Japanese history, and ask, "What can anyone really know about history?"   Mentioned in this podcast: The Sengoku Field Manual (Nate's Blog) http://www.sengokufieldmanual.com/2013/02/giving-up-myths-part-i.html Perrin, Noel, Giving Up the Gun, Japan's Reversion to the Sword, 1543-1879 D.

Hello listeners!  For the next few episodes we'll be airing what was originally meant to be a seperate podcast on the Samurai Archives podcast network.  In these bonus episodes, your hosts will tackle things from their own perspective from outside academia in what is intended to be a comedic and free flow format where they will debate, attack, pontificate, and throw things under the bus in the name of entertainment, intellectual discussion, and philosophizing. Often in these episodes, in the name of debate and spurring discussion, strong, adamant or outright offensive opinions may be expressed, therefore it should be clearly stated up front that everything said in these bonus episodes reflect strictly and only the views of Chris and Forest, and should not be percieved to reflect the views of any other hosts or guests of the podcast.  With that being said, please enjoy our bonus episodes. In this first bonus episode we examine the myths and mystique surrounding Takeda Shingen and the battles of Kawanakajima.  The 4th battle of Kawanakajima is traditionally believed to be a victory for the Takeda clan, but the events that followed all point to a decisive victory by the Uesugi.  As for Takeda Shingen himself, he is considered a hero of the Sengoku, loved by fanboys at home and abroad - but was he really the magnanimous Daimyo he's made out to be, or the 16th century version of a colossal douchebag?

In this episode, we look at the Takeda clan during the 1560s. After Uesugi Kenshin effectively stopped Takeda Shingen in his tracks at the 4th battle of Kawanakajima in 1561, Shingen was forced to re-evaluate his goals in the region, which led to the 1560’s being a time of great change in the Takeda clan.
