Manage episode 397553384 series 3406714
On the fifty-fourth episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max take their first look at the extensive filmography of Masaki Kobayashi and his samurai tale Harakiri. A masterful philosophical discussion applicable to this day, several interlacing stories are told in a disgraced samurai's path to commit ritualistic seppuku or harakiri. Tristen and Max get into the ethical issues of the film and how it appears to American society, talk about the hairstyles that make men, and a bit of Oscar nomination buzz including Tristen's most shocking revelation on the podcast.
