05/31/2014 Picks up in its final stretch ? the last scene is amazing ? but for this viewer took too long to arrive there. See more 11/23/2010 Hiroshi Teshigahara hatte in den 1960er Jahren einige wilde, experimentelle Filme inszeniert und sich dann fast zwei Dekaden lang aus dem Kino zurà 1/4ckgezogen, um sich der Kunst des Ikebana zu widmen. Sein erster Spielfilm nach 17 Jahren, RIKYU, ist eine sehr schöne, stille und sichere Studie à 1/4ber den Konflikt von Kunst und Politik, durchgefà 1/4hrt am Beispiel des japanischen Teerituals. Ãsthetisch interessanter ist dann aber vielleicht doch sein Frà 1/4hwerk, dem ich mich alsbald mal widmen sollte. See more 12/12/2009 I very much respect Buddism and I enjoy watching movies such as this one. Brilliant See more 08/27/2009 Timeless in principle and disturbingly so in it's struggle: "This is the story of the duel between art and politics, of the beliefs of one man against the ambitions of another..." Can art be defended from those who would "use" it rather than living it? See more 03/26/2009 great movie about a great man See more 10/16/2008 Unlike the superstylized films from the Sixties one often remembers Teshigahara for, Rikyu is imbued with exquisite calm and perfection, very much like the tea ceremony itself, and a strong humanitarian approach often amiss in his earlier work. Some superb acting here as well, where the perfectly balanced Mikuni Rentaro serves as complementary to the headstrong Yamazaki Tsutomu. See more Read all reviews
