The Burmese Harp (1956)

In the War's closing days, when a conscience-driven Japanese soldier fails to get his countrymen to surrender to overwhelming force, he adopts the lifestyle of a Buddhist monk.

This is a remake of 1956 The Burmese Harp. The original one was black and white. Really heartwarming movie

Ancient instrument. Lovely. Touching. Simple yet beautiful. Very sentimental value. Touches people heart. It connected human emotion.

Both has calm and religious vibe. Both main lead changed himself evolved into music and humanity. They decided to stay away from civilization and follow their soul and spirit

War bromance. Friendship without border. Love and care about other human being despite the war. Cruelty of war. Both great movies. Worth watching. Old movies but it make you grow mature a little after watching them. Strong Soldiers Brotherhood love.

Both are post war story. The solders suffered so much. Many death. Self blame. Most want to go home. It was hard to go back to war zone. The solders inner struggle, guilt, and pain. Solid and touching stories

Forever memorable musical movie. Involve strong brotherly love, friendly, strong bond during hard time. War is brutal. People find music and dance not just for entertainment but music is their live.

Musical, strong vocal, unforgettable love, go home, when actual home is? Silent communication, don’t give up on your friends, village effort,

Both movie involved the main character became a monk
They both walk through the land after war.
They mourned for the dead shoulders.
They prayed for their soul. They wonder with minimal.

“Burmese Heart” shows the aftermath of World War II for Japanese soldiers far from home. Before they learn that Japan has surrendered, foraging food is a problem. Mizushima (rank unspecified, played by Yasui Shoji) is a scout who can pass for Burmese and has mastered the Burmese harp. Disguised as a Buddhist monk, Mizushima makes his way to where his company is imprisoned. Along the way, he finds many more corpses. He buries one, but feels that his duty is to return to his own company.
