Excellent movie.
Plebs will scoff as they can't comprehend it.
is that crazy guy who tried to teach a bunch of teenage boys to be samurai in the 70's?

One of my favorite movies ever. OST is brilliant.

Reducing all of Mishima's work, both in art and politics to his sexual traumas and fears is pretty simplistic desu.
But the movie had nice aesthetics and soundtrack, so there's that.
Machinima shit doesn't belong on /tv/.
Was he gay?
>"The jews fear the samurai"
What did he mean by this?

is this the new karate kid?

>no reference to him being a gay manlet because his wife didn't want to acknowledge that
Shit biopic desu.

It would have been better if Mishima's widow didn't ban them from including any of the more scandalous details of his life.

his "militia" was a way for him to have sexual relations with men under the guise of continuing samurai tradition. But they couldn't include things like that in the movie because Japan's privacy laws are so strict.

he was 5'2 iirc. ultra manlet status
Even if it sucked, based Philip Glass soundtrack alone would make it great.
General reply to various posters in this thread, Yukio Mishima was a colossal faggot, both in the sense that he was homosexual and also in the sense that he was a pathetic idiot. You have to laugh at some of the stories about him, like the time he tried to take over a military base armed only with a wooden sword and a few twinks.
