Capt. Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) is an American military officer hired by the Emperor of Japan to train the country's first army in the art of modern warfare.

Because Cruise is the star of the film, many misinterpret the story. Katsumoto and his clan are the last Samurai. Algren, though an outsider, comes to deeply respect and appreciate the disciplined and principled Samurai philosophy that allows him to put his own past to rest. He is there as a witness to the end of the Samurai and Bushido way of life, as seen through western eyes.

Yeah. He's no white savior, as many go straight to (maybe some of that commentary is still valid though). The story is more of Japanese culture and Samurai way of life being what saves /him/, and he witnesses it just before its death/transition into the modern and more westernized era. He simply carries Katsumoto's message at the end, a plea to not get so swept up in modernizing Japan that they lose what Japan is. The west is modern, true, but to become modern, Japan doesn't have to become a western nation and forget what it was.

Tom Cruise's character wasn't The Last Samurai, it was Katsumoto. Sure, Nathan fought with them, but The Last Samurai as the title alludes to is Katusmoto. And no, he didn't go back, or at least we don't know that, that was just a fantasy the narrator had because they don't know what actually happened to him. "no one knows what happened to him" "I like to think..."

#DatoLevelUp | The #TheLastSamurai film is based on the true story of the Satsuma Rebellion, or Southwest War, as it is known in Japan, the military uprising led by Saigō Takamori, who sought to prevent the disappearance of Samurai values ​​and philosophy, which was being denigrated by the Western model. In recognition of his work as a samurai and his help to the Japanese people, the Meiji government posthumously pardoned him on February 22, 1889 and declared him a national hero. The character of Captain Nathan Algren is inspired by the story of Jules Brunet, a French military officer who served in the Tokugawa shogunate during the Boshin War in Japan. He had originally been sent to Japan as an artillery instructor with the French military mission of 1867, but adopting its philosophies, refused to leave the country after the shōgun's defeat, and played a leading role in the breakaway Republic of Ezo and its fights against the forces of the Meiji Restoration.

And of all the freaking accents, my uncle Jim in Glasgow is like if you took a sober (read : 8 pints in) Irish from the sticks and then added Liverpool and removed all enunciation and then sprinkled in some cockney. It's thick, fast, slurred and all using a local dialect. Even the Irish are like, "can't tell if it's drink slang or Welsh before the oppressors gave them the gift of vowels... And why the random laughs mid sentence?"

Filming took place in New Zealand, mostly in the Taranaki region, with mostly Japanese cast members and an American production crew. This location was chosen due to the fact that Egmont/Mount Taranaki resembles Mount Fuji, and also because there is a lot of forest and farmland in the Taranaki region. American Location Manager Charlie Harrington saw the mountain in a travel book and encouraged the producers to send him to Taranaki to scout the locations. This acted as a backdrop for many scenes, as opposed to the built up cities of Japan. Several of the village scenes were shot on the Warner Bros. Studios backlot in Burbank, California. Some scenes were shot in Kyoto and Himeji, Japan. There were 13 filming locations altogether

Since he was unable to do it due to several circumstances, the Japanese soldier was supposed to do it, albeit unknowingly.

Samurai can be both singular and plural. So the Last Samurai can mean either the last single Samurai and/or the last group of them. The reality is that Nathan wouldn't have become an equivalent sword fighter to a samurai in one year, but it is also important to remember that even if he doesn't have the same sword fighting skills, Nathan was an experienced warrior who wasn't afraid of death. So that can close the gap some. It was loosely based on the Meiji Restoration. Sad that in this day and age we still have to have a Western hero who in a short period becomes equal if not better than the natives who have been living the samurai ways for a lifetime. Despite all of that, it's still a great movie.

The one, rather significant honestly, problem of this otherwise great film is... guns. The Samurai (and the non-noble rest of the Japanese military for that matter) had been using firearms since the *mid 16th century,* actually Tokugawa won the civil wars of the 16th century by *inventions in battlefield musketry* (three tiered volley fire - under these circumstances even matchlock muskets produce a horrible volume of fire... See "Shogun" for *this* period. Oh and the "real live" Katsumoto wore western uniform (the armour in the film is 16th century, most Samurai had forsaken armour at this point because a couple of centuries proliferation of firepower...) and made his last stand with the sword because he'd run out of ammo... Still an *awesome* film in spite of everything.😅 Best regards Raoul G. Kunz

All of your questions are answered along the way. I was considered shameful to address someone by their first name without their permission. A person's name holds great power. No matter how powerful a man is in the community, the woman is absolute power in the home.

Nathan probably has even more conflicting feelings because the samurai in the red armor, Hirotaro Taka's husband and the kids dad is the same guy that killed his friend Zeb and Nathan targeted him as a revenge killing.

I am still of the opinion, that, the kids didn’t know that Tom Cruise had killed their father. I feel that the older son would have had more of an animosity towards him.

A beautiful movie with an outstanding performance by Ken Watanabe. Oh, and the actor playing Sergeant Zebulon Gant is the great Billy Connolly, and he's bloody Scottish 😁

The death they show is a warriors death. An honor to Samuari. Yes, I highly recommend the series Shogun.

The cutting of the Top Knot was a humiliation. As only Samurai could have a Top Knot. When Tonka is dressing Nathan in the armor. The robes the she first puts on him are the samurai's burial clothes. So for her she is once again dressing a man she cares for to go to his death. That is displayed by her sadly putting her head on his shoulder.

In the training scene, the bets were being taken by offensive moves not total moves..."Uijo in 3 moves"...took me a bit to understand myself
