Introduction
Though Kurosawa’s films are most times depicted several centuries before they are filmed, he chose to reinterpret history by collapsing the cultural trends of Japan in the 1400’s with the cultural shifts making profound alterations today. There are many examples of this historical technique, and still keeping the culture they had in the past, but it can perhaps be best exemplified by his appropriation of women and their freedom of speech and action.
The best example of this sense of equality is probably most evident in his (1950) film, Rashomon.
Rashomon is based on two stories by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, a writer that greatly precludes Kurosawa’s era in Japanese culture.
B. It is the exchange between several stories, including that of a bandit, the victimized wife, and the wife’s husband, considered a samurai.
C. The stories told by the bandit and the samurai is heroic and appealing to a greater understanding of masculinity
D. The wife’s, however, is sharply contrasted the former two’s stories by being a largely emasculating story of cowardice and betrayal.
Her ability to tell this story, and for its ability to be told, indicates that Kurosawa attempted to get a modern woman’s perspective on the issue of masculinity and its dominance in history.
She essentially gets to ?�tell a story’ as the other two do, but hers is remarkable for its different gender centrality.
Even in his films where the female characters are not given much respect, such as his (1954) film Seven Samurai, there is still a message that Kurosawa makes about the mistreatment of women and how these status cases should not be tolerated in history.
There are many, many plots that are happening concurrently in Seven Samurai, and seemingly only one of them has a female character.
A female farmer is in love with one of the seven samurai, but their love must be kept a secret from the rest of the people.
Their love is portrayed as true and pure, and they would be able to live their lives together, but for the inequalities of hierarchies as well as genders at the time of battle.
B. The rest of the stories are about honorable men, with the exception of Kikuchiyo, a sex-starved Warrier that is willing to degrade himself for attention.
His behavior is portrayed as immoral and undesirable, meaning that his misogynistic action is not to be repeated by the audience at home.
