They say Japan was made |
| 00:00:31 |
They say the old gods dipped |
| 00:00:34 |
...and when they pulled it out, |
| 00:00:39 |
...and those drops became |
| 00:00:45 |
I say Japan was made |
| 00:00:51 |
...warriors willing to give their lives... |
| 00:00:53 |
...for what seems to have become |
| 00:00:57 |
Honor. |
| 00:01:54 |
Ladies and gentlemen: |
| 00:01:58 |
America's leader in all forms of armament |
| 00:02:02 |
...celebrates our nation's centennial |
| 00:02:08 |
one of the most decorated warriors |
| 00:02:12 |
winner of the Medal of Honor... |
| 00:02:15 |
...for his gallantry |
| 00:02:19 |
He is late of the 7th cavalry... |
| 00:02:22 |
...and their triumphant campaign against |
| 00:02:26 |
Ladies and gentlemen, |
| 00:02:31 |
captain Nathan Algren! |
| 00:02:41 |
captain Nathan Algren! |
| 00:02:46 |
Yes! |
| 00:02:48 |
Yes! |
| 00:02:50 |
one moment, |
| 00:02:56 |
Goddamn you, Algren, |
| 00:02:58 |
This is your last performance! |
| 00:03:04 |
come on! l'm sick of this! |
| 00:03:07 |
come on! |
| 00:03:09 |
Yes! |
| 00:03:18 |
My thanks, Mr. Mccabe, |
| 00:03:24 |
This, ladies and gents... |
| 00:03:27 |
...is the gun that's winning the west. |
| 00:03:30 |
why, many's the time l've found myself... |
| 00:03:35 |
...surrounded by a swarm of... |
| 00:03:40 |
...angry hostiles... |
| 00:03:43 |
...with nothing but this rifle... |
| 00:03:45 |
...between me and a certain |
| 00:03:51 |
And let me tell you, folks, |
| 00:03:54 |
...is a fearsome enemy. |
| 00:03:57 |
And if he'd had his way... |
| 00:03:59 |
...why, this scalp of mine |
| 00:04:02 |
...and there'd be a balder man |
| 00:04:12 |
Like those poor bastards out there... |
| 00:04:15 |
...on the Little Bighorn. |
| 00:04:19 |
Bodies stripped bare... |
| 00:04:23 |
...mutilated. |
| 00:04:26 |
Left to rot in the sun. |
| 00:04:32 |
This, ladies and gentlemen, |
| 00:04:37 |
...Trapper. |
| 00:04:39 |
lt's got a seven-shot capacity. |
| 00:04:44 |
Son, have you ever seen |
| 00:04:47 |
This would blow a hole |
| 00:04:50 |
That's right, missy. |
| 00:04:52 |
This beauty. |
| 00:04:54 |
You could kill yourself five, six, seven |
| 00:04:59 |
Note the patented loading port |
| 00:05:19 |
My thanks on behalf |
| 00:05:23 |
...in the name of better |
| 00:05:27 |
...and commercial opportunities. |
| 00:05:30 |
Mr. Mccabe here will take your orders. |
| 00:05:33 |
God bless you all. |
| 00:05:43 |
l must say, captain, you have a flair |
| 00:05:46 |
-You're alive. |
| 00:05:50 |
Your man custer says to me, |
| 00:05:54 |
Says l, ''what's this 'we' stuff?'' |
| 00:05:58 |
Nine lives l have. |
| 00:06:00 |
l have a good job for the both of us. |
| 00:06:03 |
God knows it looks |
| 00:06:05 |
what kind of a job? |
| 00:06:08 |
The only job you're fit for, boyo. |
| 00:06:14 |
Unless, of course, you got your heart |
| 00:06:22 |
Nathan! |
| 00:06:23 |
Just listen to what |
| 00:06:26 |
Been a while. |
| 00:06:28 |
l'd like you to meet |
| 00:06:31 |
...and his associate, whose name |
| 00:06:35 |
Sit down, please. |
| 00:06:42 |
whiskey. |
| 00:06:44 |
Now, Japan's got it in mind |
| 00:06:49 |
And Mr. omura here is willing |
| 00:06:52 |
...to hire white experts |
| 00:06:55 |
And if we play our cards right... |
| 00:06:57 |
...the Emperor grants the U.S. |
| 00:07:07 |
well, l have an agreement |
| 00:07:11 |
l'm certain Mr. omura has some concept |
| 00:07:15 |
Your performances for the winchester |
| 00:07:20 |
we will pay you $400 a month. |
| 00:07:28 |
Five. For each. |
| 00:07:31 |
And another 500 |
| 00:07:36 |
How many other genuine heroes |
| 00:07:47 |
whiskey. |
| 00:07:49 |
So who will we be training |
| 00:07:52 |
His name is Katsumoto Moritsugu. |
| 00:07:57 |
-He's Samurai. |
| 00:08:00 |
The word you might use is ''warrior.'' |
| 00:08:02 |
Mr. omura is familiar with our experiences |
| 00:08:06 |
ls he? |
| 00:08:08 |
He's even read your book. |
| 00:08:10 |
captain Algren's study of the tribes... |
| 00:08:12 |
...was a crucial factor |
| 00:08:29 |
Please excuse. what is funny? |
| 00:08:33 |
The corps back together again. |
| 00:08:39 |
...inspiring! |
| 00:08:46 |
Excuse me. |
| 00:08:51 |
l need to use the necessities. |
| 00:08:57 |
This isn't a problem. |
| 00:09:00 |
colonel Bagley. |
| 00:09:02 |
we contacted you because you are |
| 00:09:05 |
...and you assured us |
| 00:09:08 |
He'll do it. |
| 00:09:14 |
Nathan. |
| 00:09:17 |
l did what l was ordered |
| 00:09:21 |
And l have no remorse. |
| 00:09:24 |
So, what do you say we |
| 00:09:30 |
-You want me to kill Jappos, l'll kill them. |
| 00:09:34 |
You want me to kill the enemies of Jappos, |
| 00:09:39 |
Rebs or Sioux or cheyenne.... |
| 00:09:42 |
For 500 bucks a month, |
| 00:09:46 |
But keep one thing in mind... |
| 00:09:50 |
...l'd happily kill you for free. |
| 00:10:08 |
July 1 2th, 1 87 6. |
| 00:10:11 |
There is some comfort |
| 00:10:15 |
No past, no future. |
| 00:10:21 |
And then at once, I am confronted |
| 00:10:28 |
I have been hired to help suppress |
| 00:10:33 |
Apparently, this is the only job |
| 00:10:39 |
I am beset by the ironies of my life. |
| 00:11:53 |
-captain Algren, l presume? |
| 00:11:56 |
Jolly good. How do you do? |
| 00:11:59 |
Twenty years ago, |
| 00:12:02 |
Now look at it. |
| 00:12:04 |
You see, the Emperor is mad |
| 00:12:07 |
...and the Samurai believe |
| 00:12:10 |
The ancient and the modern |
| 00:12:14 |
So your new employer, Mr. omura, |
| 00:12:17 |
...every western expert he can get. |
| 00:12:19 |
Lawyers from France, engineers from |
| 00:12:23 |
...and now, of course, |
| 00:12:27 |
l came over with the British |
| 00:12:32 |
l was soon relieved of my position. |
| 00:12:34 |
l had an unfortunate tendency |
| 00:12:36 |
...in a country where no one ever |
| 00:12:39 |
So now, l very accurately translate |
| 00:12:49 |
For 2000 years, no emperor |
| 00:12:52 |
You have to realize what an honor this is. |
| 00:12:57 |
You may look at him, |
| 00:13:00 |
lf he stands, you must bow. |
| 00:13:04 |
Do l look presentable? |
| 00:13:08 |
Rather snug around the midriff. |
| 00:13:26 |
And bow. |
| 00:13:29 |
The divine Emperor Meiji |
| 00:13:32 |
He is grateful for the assistance |
| 00:13:36 |
we hope to accomplish the same national |
| 00:13:49 |
The Emperor is most interested |
| 00:13:52 |
...if you have fought |
| 00:13:55 |
we have, Your Highness. |
| 00:14:06 |
The Emperor wishes |
| 00:14:09 |
...if it is true they wear eagle feathers... |
| 00:14:12 |
...and paint their faces |
| 00:14:15 |
...and that they have no fear. |
| 00:14:20 |
They are very brave. |
| 00:14:30 |
Bow. |
| 00:14:40 |
Thank you very much. |
| 00:14:54 |
And step back. |
| 00:14:58 |
Step back, step back and turn. |
| 00:15:06 |
Right, you little bastards! |
| 00:15:09 |
You will stand up straight |
| 00:15:12 |
...every Far Eastern buttock |
| 00:15:18 |
well done, sergeant. |
| 00:15:20 |
when you understand the language, |
| 00:15:23 |
The first rank will kneel, |
| 00:15:28 |
The second rank.... |
| 00:15:29 |
July 22nd, 1 87 6. |
| 00:15:33 |
For six months' work, I am to receive |
| 00:15:37 |
...teaching Orientals to soldier. |
| 00:15:42 |
They are an army of conscripts. |
| 00:15:44 |
Most of them are peasants |
| 00:15:48 |
Fire! |
| 00:15:51 |
They are led by General Hasegawa, |
| 00:15:54 |
...who nonetheless commands |
| 00:15:57 |
what can the general tell me about |
| 00:16:06 |
He seems to have great knowledge |
| 00:16:10 |
I will count on his help |
| 00:16:13 |
who supplies their weapons? |
| 00:16:22 |
Katsumoto no longer dishonors himself |
| 00:16:27 |
He uses no firearms? |
| 00:16:28 |
To those who honor the old ways, |
| 00:16:32 |
How well does he know him? |
| 00:16:33 |
The general and Katsumoto |
| 00:16:37 |
He fought with the Samurai? |
| 00:16:41 |
He is Samurai. |
| 00:16:49 |
You must understand. Katsumoto pledged |
| 00:16:53 |
They say that a Samurai's sword |
| 00:16:56 |
Samurai are paradoxical. l've tried to write |
| 00:17:01 |
The bastards are still wearing armor. |
| 00:17:04 |
when the lrish were comporting |
| 00:17:07 |
...these chaps were the most |
| 00:17:11 |
l need information |
| 00:17:13 |
l have several more books |
| 00:17:16 |
He'll be speaking the lingo in no time. |
| 00:17:21 |
Really? |
| 00:17:23 |
A fellow linguist? oh, capital! |
| 00:17:26 |
come on, sir. |
| 00:17:29 |
Just ''hello'' or ''goodbye'' or-- |
| 00:17:33 |
''cut his tongue out |
| 00:17:38 |
Early day tomorrow, captain. |
| 00:17:40 |
-lt's about bedtime, isn't it? |
| 00:17:44 |
l never quite understood |
| 00:17:52 |
lmagine someone who hates you |
| 00:17:57 |
...grabbing a handful of your hair |
| 00:18:07 |
...and scraping a dull blade |
| 00:18:11 |
...with a saw-like motion. |
| 00:18:14 |
And let your imagination grasp, if you can, |
| 00:18:20 |
...on the turf of your hair |
| 00:18:24 |
...would have on your nervous system. |
| 00:18:31 |
And you'll have some idea |
| 00:18:35 |
...Mr. Graham. |
| 00:18:43 |
How soon can you |
| 00:18:47 |
Right away. |
| 00:18:51 |
l'm just delighted you're taking |
| 00:18:55 |
l don't give a damn about the Samurai. |
| 00:18:58 |
l shall not sleep until it is done. |
| 00:19:04 |
Sake. |
| 00:19:07 |
l bid you good night. |
| 00:19:10 |
can l get you anything? |
| 00:19:11 |
This is a punitive expedition, captain. |
| 00:19:13 |
col. Bagley, these people had |
| 00:19:17 |
-Good night, sir. |
| 00:20:05 |
Fire! |
| 00:20:16 |
we should be grateful they're all firing |
| 00:20:19 |
couldn't have put it better myself, sir. |
| 00:20:25 |
Rifle butt, against the shoulder. |
| 00:20:30 |
Eye, down the sight. |
| 00:20:33 |
Now, slowly.... |
| 00:20:39 |
well done. |
| 00:20:42 |
Nathan! |
| 00:20:48 |
Katsumoto's attacked a railroad |
| 00:20:51 |
we cannot govern a country |
| 00:20:54 |
He must be stopped now. |
| 00:20:56 |
My railroad is a priority |
| 00:21:00 |
They're not ready. |
| 00:21:01 |
The rebels don't have any rifles. |
| 00:21:05 |
whose sole occupation for the last |
| 00:21:09 |
You have superior firepower |
| 00:21:13 |
l am ordering the regiment |
| 00:21:17 |
You will track him down |
| 00:21:24 |
Load. |
| 00:21:25 |
Mr. Graham! |
| 00:21:28 |
-l beg your pardon? |
| 00:21:32 |
...if he does not shoot me, |
| 00:21:37 |
-captain, if l might have a word. |
| 00:21:42 |
Tell him! |
| 00:21:49 |
Load! |
| 00:21:55 |
Load! |
| 00:22:00 |
Faster! |
| 00:22:02 |
Faster! |
| 00:22:08 |
Shoot me, damn it. |
| 00:22:15 |
Fire! |
| 00:22:19 |
Fire! |
| 00:22:46 |
They're not ready. |
| 00:22:51 |
The regiment leaves at 6 a.m.! |
| 00:23:24 |
A thousand miles of rail track laid |
| 00:23:28 |
lt's astonishing. |
| 00:23:30 |
And omura owns all of it? |
| 00:23:32 |
As soon as he can get rid |
| 00:23:35 |
How do you intend |
| 00:23:38 |
Don't worry, Mr. Graham. |
| 00:23:54 |
Move into position! |
| 00:23:56 |
1 st company, |
| 00:23:59 |
Pay attention, |
| 00:24:01 |
2nd company, |
| 00:24:04 |
3rd and 4th company, |
| 00:24:07 |
Fill in on command! |
| 00:24:08 |
-where's Hasegawa? |
| 00:24:15 |
-cover down! |
| 00:24:18 |
we are not here as combatants. |
| 00:24:20 |
-Then who's gonna lead them? |
| 00:24:23 |
-Let's move to the rear. |
| 00:24:26 |
Fix bayonets! |
| 00:24:32 |
-Mr. Graham, accompany me to the rear. |
| 00:24:40 |
Sergeant Gant, report to the rear and see |
| 00:24:46 |
-Did you hear my order? |
| 00:24:49 |
Then you will obey it. Now! |
| 00:24:51 |
No disrespect intended, sir, |
| 00:25:00 |
-Load! |
| 00:25:31 |
Samurai come. |
| 00:25:34 |
You'll be fine, son. |
| 00:25:53 |
-Assume firing positions! |
| 00:26:09 |
Fire on my order only! |
| 00:26:33 |
Hold your fire! |
| 00:26:35 |
Hold your fire! |
| 00:26:44 |
Reload! |
| 00:26:50 |
Hold the line! |
| 00:26:53 |
Fire at will! |
| 00:27:11 |
Lieutenant, fall back! |
| 00:27:56 |
Zeb! |
| 00:32:25 |
what is your name? |
| 00:32:54 |
This is my son's village. |
| 00:32:56 |
we are deep in the mountains |
| 00:33:03 |
Jolly good. |
| 00:35:56 |
Sake. |
| 00:35:59 |
Sake? |
| 00:36:01 |
Sake. |
| 00:36:10 |
Sake. |
| 00:36:14 |
Sake. |
| 00:37:15 |
Sake. |
| 00:37:20 |
Sake! |
| 00:37:34 |
Please. |
| 00:37:36 |
Sake. |
| 00:37:47 |
Sake! |
| 00:37:56 |
No! |
| 00:38:00 |
No! |
| 00:38:06 |
l told you! |
| 00:38:16 |
No! |
| 00:39:02 |
Morning. |
| 00:40:57 |
Go. You, go. |
| 00:41:01 |
what's your name? |
| 00:41:03 |
You got a name, don't you? |
| 00:41:09 |
You don't know what l'm saying, do you? |
| 00:41:13 |
l know why you don't talk. |
| 00:41:15 |
You're angry. |
| 00:41:17 |
You're angry because |
| 00:41:22 |
Son of a bitch. |
| 00:42:02 |
This temple was built by my family |
| 00:42:08 |
My name is Katsumoto. |
| 00:42:11 |
what is your name? |
| 00:42:20 |
Are my words not correct? |
| 00:42:27 |
l will practice my English with you... |
| 00:42:32 |
...if you would honor me. |
| 00:42:35 |
You kept me alive just to speak English? |
| 00:42:40 |
Then what do you want? |
| 00:42:43 |
To know my enemy. |
| 00:42:46 |
l've seen what you do to your enemies. |
| 00:42:49 |
warriors in your country do not kill? |
| 00:42:51 |
They don't cut the heads off defeated, |
| 00:42:55 |
General Hasegawa asked me |
| 00:43:00 |
A Samurai cannot stand |
| 00:43:05 |
l was honored to cut off his head. |
| 00:43:10 |
Many of our customs seem strange to you. |
| 00:43:15 |
For example... |
| 00:43:17 |
...not to introduce yourself is considered |
| 00:43:28 |
Nathan Algren. |
| 00:43:33 |
l am honored to meet you. |
| 00:43:36 |
-l have enjoyed this conversation in English. |
| 00:43:40 |
l have introduced myself. |
| 00:43:44 |
This is a very good conversation. |
| 00:43:46 |
-l have questions. |
| 00:43:48 |
who was the warrior in the red armor? |
| 00:43:52 |
-My brother-in-law, Hirotaro. |
| 00:43:56 |
My sister, Hirotaro's wife. |
| 00:43:59 |
Her name is Taka. |
| 00:44:01 |
l killed her husband? |
| 00:44:04 |
lt was a good death. |
| 00:44:19 |
You! |
| 00:44:54 |
Thank you. |
| 00:46:18 |
Nicely done. |
| 00:46:25 |
You try. |
| 00:46:27 |
Try. |
| 00:49:38 |
l just realized, l've been remiss. |
| 00:49:43 |
l have yet to thank you |
| 00:49:46 |
That is your job, correct? |
| 00:49:49 |
Protecting me? |
| 00:49:52 |
well done, Bob. |
| 00:49:54 |
You don't mind if l call you ''Bob,'' do you? |
| 00:49:57 |
l knew a Bob once. |
| 00:50:02 |
You a ladies' man, Bob? |
| 00:50:08 |
Ujio is teaching you the way |
| 00:50:14 |
Yes, indeed. |
| 00:50:17 |
You fought against your Red lndians? |
| 00:50:26 |
Yes. |
| 00:50:27 |
Tell me of your part in this war. |
| 00:50:29 |
-why? |
| 00:50:31 |
-Read a book. |
| 00:50:34 |
-why? |
| 00:50:37 |
...we are both students of war. |
| 00:50:46 |
So... |
| 00:50:49 |
...you were the general of your army? |
| 00:50:54 |
No. |
| 00:50:56 |
l was a captain. |
| 00:50:59 |
This is a low rank? |
| 00:51:03 |
A middle rank. |
| 00:51:06 |
And who was your general? |
| 00:51:13 |
Don't you have a rebellion to lead? |
| 00:51:16 |
People in your country |
| 00:51:19 |
He was a lieutenant colonel. |
| 00:51:22 |
His name was custer. |
| 00:51:24 |
l know this name. |
| 00:51:26 |
He killed many warriors. |
| 00:51:28 |
oh, yes. Many warriors. |
| 00:51:30 |
So he was a good general. |
| 00:51:32 |
No. No, he wasn't a good general. |
| 00:51:36 |
He got massacred because he took a single |
| 00:51:41 |
Two thousand lndians? |
| 00:51:44 |
How many men for custer? |
| 00:51:45 |
Two hundred and eleven. |
| 00:51:48 |
l like this General custer. |
| 00:51:51 |
He was a murderer who fell in love |
| 00:51:55 |
And his troopers died for it. |
| 00:51:57 |
l think this is a very good death. |
| 00:51:59 |
Maybe you can have one |
| 00:52:02 |
lf it is in my destiny. |
| 00:52:05 |
-what do you want from me? |
| 00:52:10 |
what are you doing? |
| 00:52:12 |
why are we having these conversations? |
| 00:52:15 |
what the hell am l doing here? |
| 00:52:22 |
ln spring... |
| 00:52:24 |
...the snows will melt |
| 00:52:29 |
Until that time, you are here. |
| 00:52:34 |
Good day, captain. |
| 00:52:58 |
1 87 6. |
| 00:53:00 |
Day unknown. Month unknown. |
| 00:53:04 |
I continue to live among |
| 00:53:09 |
I am their captive, |
| 00:53:14 |
Mostly, I'm treated with |
| 00:53:18 |
...as if I were a stray dog |
| 00:53:34 |
Everyone is polite. |
| 00:53:39 |
But beneath their courtesy, |
| 00:54:24 |
They are an intriguing people. |
| 00:54:26 |
From the moment they wake... |
| 00:54:28 |
...they devote themselves to |
| 00:54:40 |
I have never seen such discipline. |
| 00:54:45 |
I am surprised to learn that the word |
| 00:54:49 |
...and that Katsumoto believes his rebellion |
| 00:56:55 |
Please forgive. Too many mind. |
| 00:56:59 |
Too many mind? |
| 00:57:02 |
Mind sword, mind people watch, |
| 00:57:07 |
Too many mind. |
| 00:57:11 |
No mind. |
| 00:57:14 |
No mind. |
| 00:57:57 |
Not so fast. what are these? |
| 00:58:15 |
No, no. Not so fast. |
| 00:58:21 |
l'm Algren. |
| 00:58:30 |
-Nobutada. |
| 00:58:34 |
-Magojiro. |
| 00:58:36 |
Higen. |
| 00:58:38 |
Higen. |
| 00:58:43 |
Taka. |
| 00:59:53 |
She's been very kind to me. |
| 00:59:56 |
She's honored to have |
| 01:00:25 |
Winter, 1 87 7. |
| 01:00:28 |
What does it mean to be Samurai? |
| 01:00:30 |
To devote yourself utterly |
| 01:00:34 |
...to seek a stillness of your mind... |
| 01:00:38 |
...and to master the way of the sword. |
| 01:00:56 |
cold? |
| 01:01:09 |
Also. Also cold. |
| 01:01:11 |
Fire. |
| 01:01:21 |
To burn. |
| 01:02:22 |
l'm sorry. |
| 01:02:33 |
For your husband, Hirotaro. |
| 01:03:28 |
Spring, 1 87 7. |
| 01:03:31 |
This marks the longest I have stayed |
| 01:03:40 |
There is so much here |
| 01:03:47 |
I have never been a church-going man... |
| 01:03:50 |
...and what I've seen on the field of battle |
| 01:03:55 |
But there is, indeed, something... |
| 01:03:57 |
...spiritual in this place. |
| 01:04:04 |
And though it may forever |
| 01:04:07 |
...I cannot but be aware of its power. |
| 01:04:19 |
I do know it is here that I have known |
| 01:04:28 |
No, you gotta get the ball! |
| 01:04:31 |
No, not me! |
| 01:05:28 |
No mind. |
| 01:08:25 |
Katsumoto! |
| 01:11:54 |
The perfect blossom is a rare thing. |
| 01:11:57 |
You could spend your life looking for one, |
| 01:12:03 |
who sent those men to kill you? |
| 01:12:05 |
l'm writing a poem about a dream l had. |
| 01:12:09 |
The tiger's eyes are like my own |
| 01:12:12 |
But he comes from across |
| 01:12:16 |
was it the Emperor? |
| 01:12:20 |
omura? |
| 01:12:21 |
lf the Emperor wishes my death, |
| 01:12:26 |
So it was omura. |
| 01:12:28 |
l'm having trouble finishing the poem. |
| 01:12:31 |
-can you suggest a last line? |
| 01:12:35 |
Yet you have written many pages |
| 01:12:42 |
what else has she told you? |
| 01:12:46 |
You have nightmares. |
| 01:12:51 |
Every soldier has nightmares. |
| 01:12:53 |
only one who is ashamed |
| 01:12:57 |
You have no idea what l have done. |
| 01:13:07 |
You have seen many things. |
| 01:13:12 |
l have. |
| 01:13:13 |
And you do not fear death, |
| 01:13:18 |
ls this not so? |
| 01:13:22 |
-Yes. |
| 01:13:26 |
lt happens to men who have seen |
| 01:13:30 |
And then l come to this place |
| 01:13:36 |
...and l remember. |
| 01:13:38 |
Like these blossoms... |
| 01:13:41 |
...we are all dying. |
| 01:13:45 |
To know life in every breath... |
| 01:13:49 |
...every cup of tea... |
| 01:13:52 |
...every life we take. |
| 01:13:55 |
The way of the warrior. |
| 01:13:58 |
Life in every breath. |
| 01:14:01 |
That is Bushido. |
| 01:14:07 |
The Emperor has granted |
| 01:14:12 |
we leave tomorrow. |
| 01:14:17 |
Good. |
| 01:14:19 |
Good. |
| 01:14:27 |
when l took these, you were... |
| 01:14:31 |
...my enemy. |
| 01:16:16 |
Algren-san! Algren-san. |
| 01:19:14 |
Algren? |
| 01:19:16 |
Algren, my God, you are alive. |
| 01:19:23 |
well, you never cease to astonish. |
| 01:19:26 |
-Howitzers. |
| 01:19:30 |
As soon as the Emperor signs |
| 01:19:33 |
...he gets the whole package. |
| 01:19:35 |
lncluding this particular item. |
| 01:19:39 |
And the new cartridges |
| 01:19:42 |
l need a bath. |
| 01:19:44 |
After living with those savages, |
| 01:19:49 |
welcome back, captain. |
| 01:21:23 |
Gentlemen, come in. |
| 01:21:26 |
captain Algren, it seems you have |
| 01:21:31 |
l was not ill-treated, sir. |
| 01:21:33 |
Mr. omura, l have here |
| 01:21:37 |
l'm eager to know how many Samurai |
| 01:21:41 |
l'm afraid l don't know. |
| 01:21:42 |
-You spent the winter at his encampment. |
| 01:21:46 |
Has he fortified his position? |
| 01:21:50 |
As you said, colonel, |
| 01:21:56 |
-Sir, about the-- |
| 01:22:00 |
Thank you. Leave them on my desk. |
| 01:22:04 |
with all due respect, sir, |
| 01:22:09 |
Perhaps there is someone else |
| 01:22:12 |
with all due respect, ambassador... |
| 01:22:14 |
...perhaps there is someone else |
| 01:22:17 |
For instance, the French |
| 01:22:20 |
or any of the legations |
| 01:22:25 |
we should be looking forward |
| 01:22:29 |
Good afternoon, gentlemen. |
| 01:22:33 |
Perhaps you and l might have |
| 01:22:41 |
-May l offer you whiskey? |
| 01:22:51 |
Katsumoto is an extraordinary man, |
| 01:22:54 |
He's a tribal leader. |
| 01:22:58 |
But none who are Samurai. |
| 01:23:03 |
-l don't see how this concerns me. |
| 01:23:07 |
You see, you were right. Last year, |
| 01:23:12 |
You were right, |
| 01:23:15 |
But now, we are ready. |
| 01:23:17 |
lf Katsumoto is allowed to attract |
| 01:23:21 |
...we will have 1 0 years of rebellion. |
| 01:23:26 |
Either l'll stop him at the council today, |
| 01:23:32 |
And with these new weapons, |
| 01:23:38 |
-l appreciate the offer. |
| 01:23:42 |
Mr. omura, my contract with you |
| 01:23:46 |
Then we will make a new contract... |
| 01:23:49 |
...one that will recognize the extraordinary |
| 01:23:55 |
Do we understand each other? |
| 01:23:59 |
-Yes, we understand each other perfectly. |
| 01:24:21 |
captain Algren! |
| 01:24:24 |
The diplomatic community is abuzz. |
| 01:24:27 |
omura has passed laws |
| 01:24:30 |
l need a drink. |
| 01:24:31 |
ls your friend Katsumoto really planning |
| 01:24:43 |
My God, it's started. |
| 01:24:55 |
captain Algren! |
| 00:03:11 |
l heard you were leaving. |
| 00:03:15 |
omura offers you my job, |
| 00:03:19 |
l suppose l should thank you. |
| 00:03:21 |
$500 a month, including |
| 00:03:26 |
...in captivity. |
| 00:03:30 |
Enough to climb back inside a bottle |
| 00:03:37 |
You're welcome. |
| 00:03:43 |
well, it is pretty much over. |
| 00:03:46 |
Katsumoto's under arrest. |
| 00:03:51 |
with him dead, we should have |
| 00:03:55 |
...even without you. |
| 00:04:01 |
Especially without you. |
| 00:04:08 |
Just tell me one thing. |
| 00:04:11 |
what is it about your own people |
| 00:08:31 |
Don't stop. |
| 00:09:20 |
-President of the United States? |
| 00:09:23 |
l think l'm going to be sick. |
| 00:09:43 |
How's your poem coming? |
| 00:09:48 |
The end is proving difficult. |
| 00:09:51 |
This is Mr. Simon Graham. He'd like |
| 00:09:56 |
l thought you returned to America. |
| 00:09:58 |
l decided to stay. |
| 00:10:03 |
How do you plan to do that? |
| 00:10:14 |
Mr. Graham, perhaps you would care |
| 00:10:18 |
l would be greatly honored. |
| 00:14:19 |
The Emperor could not hear my words. |
| 00:14:24 |
His army will come. |
| 00:14:28 |
lt is the end. |
| 00:14:32 |
For 900 years, my ancestors |
| 00:14:39 |
Now... |
| 00:14:41 |
...l have failed them. |
| 00:14:54 |
So you will take your own life... |
| 00:14:59 |
...in shame? |
| 00:15:06 |
Shame for a life of service? |
| 00:15:10 |
Discipline? compassion? |
| 00:15:14 |
The way of the Samurai |
| 00:15:18 |
Necessary? |
| 00:15:22 |
what could be more necessary? |
| 00:15:29 |
l will die by the sword. |
| 00:15:34 |
My own... |
| 00:15:37 |
...or my enemy's. |
| 00:15:40 |
Then let it be your enemy's. |
| 00:15:45 |
Together, we will make |
| 00:18:30 |
Algren. |
| 00:19:03 |
l'd say two full regiments. |
| 00:19:05 |
They'll come in waves of a thousand. |
| 00:19:08 |
And they have the howitzers. |
| 00:19:10 |
lt makes no difference. They will come, |
| 00:19:14 |
-How many men will we have? |
| 00:19:18 |
Like General custer, huh? |
| 00:19:24 |
There was once a battle |
| 00:19:28 |
Three hundred brave Greeks held off |
| 00:19:32 |
A million. You understand this number? |
| 00:19:35 |
l understand this number. |
| 00:19:37 |
For two days the Greeks |
| 00:19:40 |
...the Persian army lost all taste |
| 00:19:45 |
-what do you have in mind? |
| 00:19:50 |
They're overconfident. we'll use that. |
| 00:19:54 |
close enough for a sword. |
| 00:19:58 |
You believe... |
| 00:20:00 |
...a man can change his destiny? |
| 00:20:05 |
l think a man does what he can... |
| 00:20:08 |
...until his destiny is revealed to him. |
| 00:20:18 |
May 25th, 1 87 7. |
| 00:20:22 |
This will be the last entry |
| 00:20:25 |
I've tried to give a true accounting |
| 00:20:31 |
I do not presume to understand |
| 00:20:34 |
I know I am grateful |
| 00:20:39 |
...even if for a moment. |
| 00:25:57 |
You will need this. |
| 00:26:11 |
what does it say? |
| 00:26:14 |
''l belong to the warrior in whom |
| 00:27:23 |
Good God. |
| 00:27:29 |
Sir, the lmperial Army of Japan |
| 00:27:34 |
lf you lay down your arms, |
| 00:27:37 |
This is not possible, |
| 00:27:45 |
captain Algren. |
| 00:27:47 |
we will show you no quarter. |
| 00:27:50 |
You ride against us, |
| 00:27:53 |
l'll look for you on the field. |
| 00:28:16 |
captain Algren. |
| 00:28:18 |
Mr. Graham. |
| 00:28:24 |
Perhaps you can use these |
| 00:28:27 |
Yes, l will. captain. |
| 00:28:33 |
Godspeed. |
| 00:28:36 |
Mr. Graham. |
| 00:30:01 |
commence firing! |
| 00:31:20 |
-They're covering their retreat. |
| 00:31:23 |
Even the mighty Samurai |
| 00:31:27 |
-Signal the attack. |
| 00:31:30 |
Nonsense! Full attack! |
| 00:32:28 |
They're coming. |
| 00:33:02 |
wait for the volley. |
| 00:33:16 |
Second volley. |
| 00:34:13 |
-what on earth? |
| 00:35:00 |
-The attack has been stopped. |
| 00:35:08 |
what happened to the warriors |
| 00:35:11 |
Dead to the last man. |
| 00:36:17 |
Algren-san! |
| 00:39:07 |
Son of a bitch thinks he can win. |
| 00:40:14 |
They'll bring two more regiments |
| 00:40:18 |
we won't be able to stop them again. |
| 00:40:21 |
You do not have to die here. |
| 00:40:26 |
l should have died |
| 00:40:29 |
Now, you live again. |
| 00:40:34 |
Yes. |
| 00:40:38 |
lt was not your time. |
| 00:40:45 |
lt's not over. |
| 00:41:33 |
what is this? |
| 00:41:39 |
-This is madness. He's going to attack? |
| 00:41:52 |
He's defeated! |
| 00:42:07 |
Kill him. All of them. |
| 00:42:09 |
Now! |
| 00:42:16 |
My horse! |
| 00:43:10 |
Fire! |
| 00:43:48 |
Ready! |
| 00:43:53 |
Aim! |
| 00:44:00 |
Fire! |
| 00:44:07 |
Fire at will! |
| 00:45:08 |
Backward! |
| 00:47:19 |
No. |
| 00:47:28 |
You have your honor again. |
| 00:47:33 |
Let me die with mine. |
| 00:47:44 |
Help me up. |
| 00:48:06 |
Are you ready? |
| 00:48:15 |
l will miss our conversations. |
| 00:49:05 |
Perfect. |
| 00:49:14 |
They are all... |
| 00:49:18 |
...perfect. |
| 00:50:48 |
On behalf of the United States of America... |
| 00:50:53 |
...the signing of this treaty will usher in |
| 00:50:58 |
...and cooperation between |
| 00:51:03 |
on behalf of the Emperor... |
| 00:51:05 |
...we are pleased to have |
| 00:51:12 |
...negotiation. |
| 00:52:58 |
This is Katsumoto's sword. |
| 00:53:02 |
He would have wanted you to have it... |
| 00:53:06 |
...that the strength of the Samurai |
| 00:53:15 |
He hoped... |
| 00:53:18 |
...with his last breath... |
| 00:53:20 |
...that you would remember the ancestors |
| 00:53:25 |
...and what they died for. |
| 00:53:48 |
You were with him... |
| 00:53:51 |
...at the end? |
| 00:53:59 |
Emperor, this man fought against you! |
| 00:54:06 |
Your Highness... |
| 00:54:09 |
...if you believe me to be your enemy, |
| 00:54:14 |
...and l will gladly take my life. |
| 00:54:31 |
l have dreamed of a unified Japan... |
| 00:54:35 |
...of a country strong |
| 00:54:41 |
And now we have railroads |
| 00:54:49 |
But... |
| 00:54:54 |
...we cannot forget who we are... |
| 00:54:59 |
...or where we come from. |
| 00:55:16 |
Ambassador Swanbeck... |
| 00:55:19 |
...l have concluded that your treaty... |
| 00:55:22 |
...is not in the best interest of my people. |
| 00:55:27 |
-Sir, if l may-- |
| 00:55:31 |
...but you may not. |
| 00:55:33 |
This is an outrage! |
| 00:56:43 |
Tell me how he died. |
| 00:56:54 |
l will tell you how he lived. |
| 00:57:07 |
And so the days |
| 00:57:12 |
Nations, like men, it is sometimes said, |
| 00:57:19 |
As for the American captain... |
| 00:57:21 |
...no one knows what became of him. |
| 00:57:24 |
Some say that he died of his wounds... |
| 00:57:28 |
...others, that he returned |
| 00:57:32 |
But I like to think... |
| 00:57:33 |
...he may have at last found |
| 00:57:39 |
...that we all seek... |
| 00:57:41 |
...and few of us ever find. |

Sir, the lmperial Army of Japan |
| 00:06:48 |
If you lay down your arms, |
| 00:06:51 |
This is not possible, |
| 00:06:59 |
Captain Algren. |
| 00:07:01 |
We will show you no quarter. |
| 00:07:04 |
You ride against us, |
| 00:07:07 |
I'll look for you on the field. |
| 00:07:30 |
Captain Algren. |
| 00:07:32 |
Mr. Graham. |
| 00:07:38 |
Perhaps you can use these |
| 00:07:41 |
Yes, I will. Captain. |
| 00:07:47 |
Godspeed. |
| 00:07:50 |
Mr. Graham. |
| 00:09:15 |
Commence firing! |
| 00:10:34 |
-They're covering their retreat. |
| 00:10:37 |
Even the mighty Samurai |
| 00:10:41 |
-Signal the attack. |
| 00:10:44 |
Nonsense! Full attack! |
| 00:11:42 |
They're coming. |
| 00:12:16 |
Wait for the volley. |
| 00:12:30 |
Second volley. |
| 00:13:27 |
-What on earth? |
| 00:14:14 |
-The attack has been stopped. |
| 00:14:22 |
What happened to the warriors |
| 00:14:25 |
Dead to the last man. |
| 00:15:31 |
Algren-san! |
| 00:18:21 |
Son of a bitch thinks he can win. |
| 00:19:28 |
They'll bring two more regiments |
| 00:19:32 |
We won't be able to stop them again. |
| 00:19:35 |
You do not have to die here. |
| 00:19:40 |
I should have died |
| 00:19:43 |
Now, you live again. |
| 00:19:48 |
Yes. |
| 00:19:53 |
It was not your time. |
| 00:19:59 |
It's not over. |
| 00:20:47 |
What is this? |
| 00:20:53 |
-This is madness. He's going to attack? |
| 00:21:06 |
He's defeated! |
| 00:21:21 |
Kill him. All of them. |
| 00:21:23 |
Now! |
| 00:21:30 |
My horse! |
| 00:22:24 |
Fire! |
| 00:23:02 |
Ready! |
| 00:23:07 |
Aim! |
| 00:23:14 |
Fire! |
| 00:23:21 |
Fire at will! |
| 00:24:22 |
Backward! |
| 00:26:33 |
No. |
| 00:26:42 |
You have your honor again. |
| 00:26:47 |
Let me die with mine. |
| 00:26:58 |
Help me up. |
| 00:27:20 |
Are you ready? |
| 00:27:29 |
I will miss our conversations. |
| 00:28:19 |
Perfect. |
| 00:28:28 |
They are all... |
| 00:28:32 |
...perfect. |
| 00:30:02 |
On behalf of the United States of America... |
| 00:30:07 |
...the signing of this treaty will usher in |
| 00:30:12 |
...and cooperation between |
| 00:30:17 |
On behalf of the Emperor... |
| 00:30:19 |
...we are pleased to have |
| 00:30:26 |
...negotiation. |
| 00:32:12 |
This is Katsumoto's sword. |
| 00:32:16 |
He would have wanted you to have it... |
| 00:32:20 |
...that the strength of the Samurai |
| 00:32:30 |
He hoped... |
| 00:32:32 |
...with his last breath... |
| 00:32:34 |
...that you would remember the ancestors |
| 00:32:39 |
...and what they died for. |
| 00:33:02 |
You were with him... |
| 00:33:05 |
...at the end? |
| 00:33:13 |
Emperor, this man fought against you! |
| 00:33:20 |
Your Highness... |
| 00:33:23 |
...if you believe me to be your enemy, |
| 00:33:28 |
...and I will gladly take my life. |
| 00:33:45 |
I have dreamed of a unified Japan... |
| 00:33:49 |
...of a country strong |
| 00:33:55 |
And now we have railroads |
| 00:34:03 |
But... |
| 00:34:08 |
...we cannot forget who we are... |
| 00:34:13 |
...or where we come from. |
| 00:34:30 |
Ambassador Swanbeck... |
| 00:34:33 |
...I have concluded that your treaty... |
| 00:34:36 |
...is not in the best interest of my people. |
| 00:34:41 |
-Sir, if I may-- |
| 00:34:45 |
...but you may not. |
| 00:34:47 |
This is an outrage! |
| 00:35:57 |
Tell me how he died. |
| 00:36:08 |
I will tell you how he lived. |
| 00:36:21 |
And so the days |
| 00:36:26 |
Nations, like men, it is sometimes said, |
| 00:36:33 |
As for the American captain... |
| 00:36:35 |
...no one knows what became of him. |
| 00:36:38 |
Some say that he died of his wounds... |
| 00:36:42 |
...others, that he returned |
| 00:36:46 |
But I like to think... |
| 00:36:47 |
...he may have at last found |
| 00:36:53 |
... that we all seek... |
| 00:36:55 |
...and few of us ever find. |
