My favourite film

Directed by Edward Zwick Produced by Tom Cruise Tom Engelman Marshall Herskovitz Scott Kroopf Paula Wagner Edward Zwick Starring Tom Cruise Timothy Spall Billy Connolly Tony Goldwyn Ken Watanabe Hiroyuki Sanada Koyuki Kato Shin Koyamada

The Last Samurai It is an epic film set in 1870s in Japan. The main character is an angry, alcoholic, former US Army captain who finds inner peace after embracing the culture he was originally hired to destroy.

This film has all the necessary ingredients: beautiful Japanese landscapes and costumes, battlefields and eastern philosophy. It is a human story of one Westerner learning to embrace another culture. It is an engaging story with panache, and a climactic ending. "The Last Samurai” is a great film!
