I watched Akira Kurosawa’s Yojimbo with my father; and his reaction surprised me.

I’ve always been interested in Japanese cinema especially old black and white samurai movies. When visiting my parents for the weekend, I had Yojimbo on. My father was in the room not really paying attention at first.Gradually, he started watching the movie too. He is a big fan of Clint Eastwood films including his westerns. Once my dad starting to see the obvious old western influences of the movie, he really got into it. Comparing scenes to their western counterparts.My father doesn’t really share many of my interests, but he loves me and does his best to humor me sometimes. This was probably the first time he really connected with me over one of my more niche interests. It was a good father/son bonding activity that I will probably remember for a long time.If you are lucky to still have your father around. Give him a call/hug and send him your love while you can. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3bv4Ocp
