A beautiful experience

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2004)

I cannot remember the last time I was moved so much by a movie that I wept. And I wept hard. Before writing this comment I didn't bother reading any reviews or try to dig up the movie's lack of historical background, I simply loved "The Last Samurai" for what it had to offer. In most part, beauty. The movie is quite long, but I there was never a glimpse of boredom, I devoured every scene because mr. Zwick's effort was so impressive. Oscars all around, I say, everybody who's anybody in the movie steals the show, which is kind of contradictory, but believe me, it makes some sense:) I will not waste more words, you've grasped my enthusiasm by now. And if you'll excuse me, I'll go looking for my perfect blossom.

Not to be missed 9/10
