RAN (“CHAOS WAR“) ULTRA HD - AKIRA KUROSAWA EPIC DRAMA - BATTLE BETWEEN JIRO AND SABURO

From Akira Kurosawa’s critically acclaimed film “RAN“ (or “Chaos“) is the battle scene between Jiro and Saburo. Jiro is Red, and Saburo is Blue. Hidetora Ichimonji, a powerful though now elderly warlord, decides to divide his kingdom among his three sons: Taro, Jiro, and Saburo. Taro, the eldest, will receive the prestigious First Castle and become leader of the Ichimonji clan, while Jiro and Saburo will be given the Second and Third Castles. Hidetora is to retain the title of Great Lord and Jiro and Saburo are to support Taro. Hidetora begins to lecture his sons about the importance of unity using three arrows. He selects one arrow out of a quiver and shows how easy it is to snap in half but three arrows bundled together are much more durable.

He points out that Hidetora is foolish if he expects his sons to be loyal to him, reminding him that even Hidetora had previously used the most ruthless methods to attain power. Hid
