soul searching

Rating: 9/10 (5 December 2007)

this movie has the no 1 tearjerker scene . The movie opens with a thief and wino who has been saved from crucifixion as he may be useful as a double for the king (shingen) who kept the country safe from enemies . but when the king got killed by a sniper shot,the double must play the king for 3 years for the safety of the country . Will he accept the offer a new chance to live a respected life . as the movie proceeds we see Shingen's (the double) is searching for the meaning of his life and searching for his identity in a journey full of passion and love . but this didn't last long as soon he find a meaning for his life , it became meaningless again. a story of loyalty ,braveness,sacrifce and patriotism. a great movie.
