Heroes and Villains - Hernan Cortes Part 1 If you're a lover of 16th-century history, best steer clear of this. A drama documentary is always going to flounder trying to re-create the clash-of-civilisations story of Hernan Cortes's conquest of Mexico - it's on too horrific a scale. (Maybe Hollywood should try.) But at least Brian McCardie's gutsy performance in the Heroes and Villains strand gives us a flavour of what might have driven Cortes - a mixture of piety, dread and sheer, mad-eyed folly. Watching McCardie, hedged with re-enactments and computer effects, you can just about swallow that a deranged adventurer and a handful of men, with no authority from the King of Spain and supplies pinched from the Governor of Cuba, could bring down the Aztec empire, which included a city (Tenochtitlan) bigger than anything in Europe.
The map shows the battle formation of the East & West Camps in the Sekigahara battle, which is the finals of the age of samurai wars. Ishida Mitsunari, the leader of the West, stood on that hill called Sasao-yama and planed his strategy in the year of 1600. The winner, Tokugawa Ieyasu who commanded the East, was appointed the Shogun by the then Emperor after the battle.

Sekigahara war
Bitwa pod Sekigahara odbyła się 21 Października 1600 roku. Była to ponoć najważniejsza bitwa w Historii Japonii. Obok prezentujemy krótki film dokumentalny o tej bitwie. Jeżeli spotka się z pozytywną reakcją z Waszej strony, to będziemy kontynuować cykl filmów dokumentalnych na tematy życia codziennego, mody, historii, a także podróży. www.i-japonia.pl
This documentary of Tokugawa Ieyasu was made using real pictures of the actual Samurai involved, and their Crests, set to The Lonely Shepard. There was one factual error in the movie, that of course beeing that Oda Nobunaga was not from peasant stock as implied, but that subtitle had been meant Hideyoshi, Toyotomi. Enjoy.

A 10 minute clip of the battle scene from Ran by Kurosawa. Re-issued DVD avail: www.amazon.com
This short film clip is part of the stunning initial castle attack in Akira Kurosawa's Ran (translated as meaning Chaos). It is one of the Japanese director's greatest films, and is his samurai version of Shakespeare's King Lear. The clip demonstrates Kurosawa's impressive use of action choreography, imagery, backdrop and color in telling his story. And, likely the one of the hardest, most courageous stunt any performer had to endure: that of being knocked down by horse and rider, only to have to lie still while the cavalry rode over and around one's prone body.
King Richard I of England & 2000 men went to rescue the besieged Garrison at Jaffa by 12000 saracens led by Saladin. Richard's bravery in battle, earned him the name Richard the Lionheart.

Tokugawa Ieyasu nació el 31 de enero de 1543 en la provincia de Mikawa. Su nombre original era Matsudaira Takechiyo. Era hijo de Matsudaira Hirotada (1526 1549), un daimyō de Mikawa que pasaba la mayoría de su tiempo en guerra contra el clan Oda y el clan Imagawa. La familia Matsudaira estaba dividida en dos facciones: un lado quería ser vasallo del clan Imagawa, mientras que el otro, prefería el clan Oda. Esta pelea familiar fue la razón del asesinato del padre de Hirotada (abuelo de Takechiyo), Matsudaira Kiyoyasu (¿? - 1536). A diferencia de su padre y la mayoría de su familia, Hirotada encontró al clan Imagawa como el menor de dos males. La lealtad de Hirotada hacia los Imagawa causó que el resto de su familia apoyara al clan Oda con más fuerza que antes. En 1548, cuando el clan Oda invadió Mikawa, Hirotada se dirigió con Imagawa Yoshimoto, cabeza del clan Imagawa, en demanda de ayuda para combatir a los invasores. Yoshimoto accedió a ayudar con la condición de que Hirotada enviara a su hijo Takechiyo a Sumpu como un rehén en exilio. Hirotada aceptó, a pesar de la presión los miembros de la familia Matsudaira. Takechiyo y un grupo de sirvientes fueron enviados hacia Sunpu como rehenes. Oda Nobuhide, el líder de los Oda, se enteró del arreglo de Hirotada e Imagawa y atacó la caravana en la que viajaba Takechiyo. Fue capturado y llevado al Castillo Kowatari en Owari. Nobuhide amenazó con asesinar a Takechiyo a menos que Hirotada rompiera todos los vínculos que tenía con ...
