Pertenece al film Throne of Blood, de Akira Kurosawa (1957)
Fun fact, the reason he stretches out his arm at 0:18 was to make 100% certain that the archers knew he was moving so that he didn't accidentally get hit.
Brilliantly done! Imagine this in today’s current movie industry: you would have CGI arrows and CGI blood and it would look like really bad. A toast to classic movies!
I did part of my coursework based on this and Akira Kurosawa / Japanese Cinema for Film studies in College. Kurosawa loved to project 20th century contexts and problems against historical backdrops and well known fictional retellings of Shakespeare and others. The character in this movie Throne of Blood is based upon the Japanese generals refusal to surrender at the end of WW2 and the soldiers firing arrows represent those who wanted to end the War and remove stubborn and incompetent generals. This is how many Japanese felt at the time including Kurosawa. Much of Kurosawa’s work including this and films such as Seven Samurai was groundbreaking in being a mainstream media form that suggested all was not noble, good or well with the elite. Japan was on the brink of total annihilation in every way you can think of and Kurosawa used his craft of filmmaking to break barriers regarding criticism in way that viewers could see
I am Japanese. This movie has a very slow and unique atmosphere and is quite different from recent movies. However, the power of this scene is tremendous. Director Kurosawa really shoots arrows at Mifune using a bow and arrow expert!
Fun Fact : All those arrows were shot by professional archers. They all had recordplayer tips and wires to ensure it wouldn't wound the actor, who is also wearing a vest under his costume to protect his vitals.

Damn the arrow on the neck was one of the smoothest cuts in cinema

How to make your actor fake fear convincingly? Don't make him fake it.

Best part of the movie
a realistic depiction of how I avoid my responsibilities.
公家のような武士たち、そして、姫たちが上流階級の、架空の土地。
その者たちを束ねる武将は、最後に、その土地の、平民に、裏切られる、幻想的な作品。
しかし、そのラストシーンは、鬼気迫る。
同時に、二台以上のキャメラで撮影したのかどうかは、判らないが、このシーンの、モンタージュ理論に依る演出は、本当に、見事で、映画史に残るのではないか。
これは、黒澤 明 映画では、酔いどれ天使、天国と地獄、の次の、第3位の傑作である。
