A pretty good later film of Kurosawa's that is a beautiful but sad story of the gap between generations in relation to war. While the ending could've used work, Richard Gere does good and Kurosawa's usual great direction sidestep that.

I would pair this film along with his 1955 feature "I Live In Fear" as one of his most personally outspoken but beautifully lyrical works about his major subject in the contemporary dramas he made. Also, I had no idea Richard Gere was that fluent in japanese.

O único filme que eu já ouvi falar sobre o gênero. Quando alguns japoneses recebem a visita de parentes que moram nos EUA e são donos de uma plantação de abacaxis no Hawaii, os mais jovens da família sucitam questões éticas sobre a segunda guerra mundial, a bomba atômica e a dificuldade em se esquecer o passado e perdoar o inimigo. Brilhante, obra de um gênio!

It's an average film with a few moments of greatness. The scene with the two burnt trees, the scene with the twisted playground wreakage, both are pretty wonderful. However, I think Kurosawa made a couple weird aesthetic decisions that hurt the film. The music in the final sequence, for example, ruined what is otherwise a beautiful finale.

A great movie in the shadow of The bomb.
