Newest Scorsese Film, a recommendation

in #japan8 years ago (edited)

The film, "Silence" by Scorsese is worth seeing! I felt that both the Jesuit and Japanese sides' dilemma was well expressed. The struggle of the main character is acutely felt, and even in the end he is, I think, arguably "silently"(in many meanings) faithful. Even though this particular story is fiction, it is based in a historical reality of that time. The viewer is open to take away what they will. I definitely recommend watching.
