violent scene from ran

[TheVoiceOfReason93]

Well, at least nobody wins in the end.

[IArteaga45]

It's fuckin ridiculous how off sync it is

[MrBoBoTom]

It's out of fucking sync!

[corndogman221]

Shit Happens.... Especially with Samurai.

[MproductionsMovies]

Sound is completely out of sync. I can hardly enjoy this clip.

[ultimateLDrago]

he first swing the sword and the blood comes 2nd what was that?

[nguyenming]

thumb down!!!

the voice is so... so wrong

Very good movie through

[boomchakalaka0]

gay

[cschnei08]

Here's how it goes: Hidetora, the old man who we feel sorry for the whole film, was a brutal warlord in the time preceding the film. To build his empire, him and his sons slaughtered thousands and wiped out rival clans. Kaede is from one of those clans. The shit you saw happening was Karma.

[NejiKusa]

Thats badass.

[123popbottles123]

sleewwww deeemm

[Trickxxx]

[MYSTERYAsDfGhJkL0507]

[moomoo4you]

[tommyt1971]

Soundtrack is off... way off...

[1533you]

this is kind of men you don't call xenophobe, homophobe, sucker, dickhead, etc. you respect them or die. that's what men should be

[neotetsuo07]

@1533you what's the matter?

[1533you]

@neotetsuo07 what do you mean?

[lebarosky]

As we all know, she was beheaded for painting her eyebrows too high on her forehead.

[mitsubishi777]

@lebarosky You have a good sense of humour. I

[TheGhostOperative]

@lebarosky lmfao

[PaperOkami]

My favorite film from my favorite director.

[KremeDeMentia]

The movie is insulted by being represented only by this scene.

[666moviefreak]

cool scene

[simolui]

pure giaps genius!!!!!!! quarantino's favorite driector... also in animation lets not forget the legendary Mayasaki!!!!

[TheAMERIKANPSYCHO]

A VERY GOOD SCENE!!!

[MrINeedSome]

You've got to get this in sync. You've totally mangled one of the best scenes in one of the greatest movies of all time.

[Impoxdragon]

That's not blood, its Tapatio!

[yeahbaby2123]

this scene is a major spoiler to the movie, you shouldnt upload scenes like this.

[pamew]

Or maybe you just shouldn't fucking watch it? besides which, if you know just HOW pivotal the scene is, you've obviously seen the damn thing yourself.

"Waaaaagh, stop uploading great scenes from classic films for us, waagh".

Grow the fuck up.

[than217]

The sound is off on this clip ...worse than the words matching a dubbed Godzilla film.

[WerewolfCarnival]

One swing, one kill...

[ruialbertobasto]

The danger of ONLY seeing this scene is to reduce one of the most beautiful and clever films (in my 10 list!) only to a part of it. Yes it is violent (often life is violent too...), but also beautiful, also clever, also loving...

Thank you Kurosawa. Last scene, with the human kind next to the clif, is much better and illustrate better what the film really is.

Don't you think?

[billthebutcher2]

That last scene is unbelievable. Heartwrenching.

[Jonee90210]

Impeccable synching.

[mjboudx]

Indubitably.

[thestrongtiger82]

Though I understand why Lady Kaede hated the Ichimonji clan for killing her family...She took things way too far by having Lady Sue killed. Lady Sue was a beautiful, pure-hearted woman who did not deserve to die. I'd be so pissed off, I would've reacted like Kurogane and kill that evil she-fox bitch Kaede on sight.

[trilocan]

If you understand Karma you will understand how Lady Kaede and Lady Sue were all victims of the vicious circle started by the Ichimonji, who in turn were victims of their own predecessors.. its a cycle.

[binaryfinary2005]

@thestrongtiger82

Maybe she hated Lady Sue because Sue's family was killed by the Ichimonji just like Kaede's but Sue did nothing about it and instead embraced a peaceful, religious existence, pretty much the opposite of Kaede

[CordsZ]

Lady Kaede was an evil bitch and a total badass all at once. I always liked her.

[ggitl]

If you actually watch this movie attentively, you'll know that this blood-splattering scene is not he basis of the movie, rather it is an expression of the violent and fierce emotional exertion in killing Lady Kaede, who through passive-aggressive manipulation brought about chaos and destruction to the world in which these characters live. That being said, I agree that this kind of thing can be over-used by less talented filmmakers to make shitty anime.

[Josephmgo1]

ran was a good movie but i still liked seven samurai the best.

[cunoamit]

SOOOO synchronous

[kronoscorvinus]

She was the latest in Kurosawa's near obsession w/ women as agents of vengence. Watch "Rashomon", Machiko Ryo, after she was raped by the bandit (Mifune) sets up a situation- in all the different recollections, that results in her rapist, and her husband who either doesn't defend her, or condemns her for submitting to her rapist, her machinations lead to a duel to the death between them.

His Lady MacBeth is frightening as well.

That NO theatre look still is scarey and sexy even today.

[TomJonessexgod]

bitch deserved it!

[4txx]

@TomJonessexgod lol, I thought the same thing

[DoctorBlowjob]

is dis sum guro?

[IAMME000]

it's like a sprinkler ^.^

[aeropajita]

fucking audio >:(

[visigoth101]

This stuck with me more than anything else in this movie (which is really saying something, the movie was awesome). I've known Asian women who appear passive and gentle, and live their ambitions through their husband. But I think the loyalty that Kurogane shows to his master despite his master turning against him over this treacherous woman is just amazing. That is true loyalty.

[bloodymissb]

You really can't blame her, back then the only power a woman could have was through her husband. They were possesions and allowed to have no say in hardly anything. She was only working with what women were given then, I can hardly blame her. Women were a uterus/vagina, cook, mother, and house keeper, little more. You might do the same if your life had so little value or meaning. At least you'd go out knowing you got out of the mold and you spit on their ass backwards patriarchy.

[USCHoodman]

I was quite happy when this happened in the film, it had to be defiant due to her evil villainy. By the way one of the best female villains ever.

[ivolchansky]

one of the best movies and one of the more poignant scenes in the movie - I was looking exactly for it - thanks for posting!

[Reaping21]

wats the movie called?

[jazzmanEE]

I love the way japanese people talk. Like they're pissed off all the time. even in softer kurosawa movies such as doomed and stray dog ,..

Kurosawa is a legend btw.

[kurisensei]

haha yeah, but in Japan you rarely hear anyone sounding angry, even when they are

[mrshinyshoes]

Same thing with German. I love both languages. Rough and tough.

[lor108avi]

thats not unrealistic at all

[TiniNormi]

This shocked the hell out of me. I mean the bitch deserved it, but... this is up there with Sling Blade as the Top 5 Off-Screen Deaths.

[Zenophobius]

ahhh the good 'ol days, no divorce court... just a one time "severance" payoff

[cha5]

Audio's out of sync but

it's still a classic scene.

[xdeliriumgirlx]

this movie is so fucking awsome on so many levels

[mach1man22]

Oh my God, this movie is so fuckin' awsome. I've been meaning to buy this movie for a long long time.

[UtoobRulz]

akira kurosawa will beheaded steven spielberg lol

[countesscristo]

well they didn't take long to do that did they?

[slavophile1]

Lady Kaede is liberalism and the House of Ichimongi is Western Civilization.

[MatthewLeee]

First we embraced her as our own (Dispite the eastern traditions that also claimed her) then we slaughted her.

[AScann3rDarkly]

I think slavophile is referring to the fact that lady kaede brought ruin to the House of Ichimongi

[almanacofsleep]

Yes but MatthewLeee anligy is much more fitting.

[AScann3rDarkly]

Not at all, unless you truly believe lady kaede was the innocent character here

[almanacofsleep]

It would make more sense the other guy ment Libertarianism.

[Npowell01]

@slavophile1

Get your conservative agenda out of my Kurosawa, lol

[Kerokeroshan]

fuckin sound

[ViriathusVingathor]

one of the best films ever.

A Imortal classic.

[drchepa]

revenge all was for revenge, taro...

[reptile1000]

this is realy realistic this is what it actualy looks like when someone choppes of somones head

[PunkChick35]

Why do you know that?

[reptile1000]

I've seen things you would not believe

[Tregen300]

its really not

[reptile1000]

HOw would you know?

[mlks007]

Ithink its not realistic.

[reptile1000]

It spurted out right. But it would have gone all over the place.

[bekzzo]

Kurosawa never really cared about absolute realism as long if he wanted to achieve something. You should see the duel scene from the movie Sanjuro

[almanacofsleep]

Its not about realism its trying to make it artistic.

[SSUstufRudel]

Doesn't seem to be violent to me man.

[Treemeadow]

thats because the modern films have left you de-sensitized. Violence is violence.

[TreJowy]

One of the central elements of the film is blame and the perpetual cycle of violence and betrayal it begets. Lady Kaede blamed Hidetora for her family's demise, and so she set out to destroy his family in total. A fairly universal message, that.

[Baldenlong77]

In answer to Sotnas, if you've seen the movie(which you really should, it's great), she DEFINITELY deserved it! She was an evil bitch.

[moonfairy86]

the audio is out of sync here.

[derhawk]

in short, she deserved it

[d2eux]

amazing movie, i was blown away

[universalis7]

it's a little complicated... she cannot so easily be blamed, although what she did bring too many deaths...

[animationeer]

@universalis7 Indeed you are right...it's hard to take sides in a movie like this, because you see all the characters for their faults yet know they all had a hand in what was inevitably to come. Even though the woman really caused a lot of deaths and pissed me off to an extent, I still feel sorry for her, because her family was wiped out and this was the only way for a woman concubine back then to get revenge. It ends badly for everybody, it's truly heartbreaking the people that get destroyed.

[akaMouse]

I only disliked Kaede until I realized that she wasn't just scheming for power. This scene made her from a character I hated during the whole movie to my favorite character in the film. She got exactly what she wanted. The sync of this clip is completely fucked though and should be deleted and re-uploaded.

[Sotnas]

Yikes! Did she deserve it?

[TheLastSmoker]

She's Kurosawa's Lady Macbeth. Yeah, she deserved it.

[pythag123]

It's actually King Lear that this is based off. but you prolly all ready knew that.
