We learn to see the samurai as a Japanese version of the knights, as warriors obsessed with honor, by perfecting their skills and imbued with high ideals. Like the knights, the samurai had their time until their world began to crumble. Well, the seven samurai of the film have all these features, but they are also human beings with feelings and history and face the misery in a time of terrible trials.
Seven Samurai is a film about extreme poverty and noble warriors despised.

Personal Comment:

As Eastern culture is interesting ... do not feel that we in the West should we have more contact with the film that comes across the world? Costumes and exotic dances in our eyes, the east has always fascinated me, a man in 1954 named Akira Kurasawa film has become enchanted with him, a director who influenced legends like Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola or Martin Scorsese, showed the brightness of the east and made his film clash with ocidental.Resultado movie? "the Seven Samurai. "a film that it stays in your head for years, fills your eyes and wonder if they will not also take away your heart.
