I allways cry at the ending of this great film, i like the other movie Flag of our fathers. But this was far better, in script and the person you followed were more well human for me. I loved the Genereal Ken watentabe is a pure class actor, loved him in Batman Begins, The Last samurai and Inception. But this role was his by far best one, a general who fought for his country and familiy to his last breath. And the soundtrack is just really touching, and great.
+derkommandent Nova Its ok to cry Because its sad what we humans have done to one another. Its a scary aspect that we have not learned or changed the things that have made us hate and react the way we do. The melody seems to hit home the loss everyone has had and the kind of togetherness that people seem to realize after it is all over.
At the end of this movie back then when the credits rolled... I felt like you listening to this.. tears couldn't stop, and I couldn't figure out what exactly provoked it. The movie touched my feelings but not as much as some other films, but this soundtrack just acted as a kind of emotional bomb to me.. masterpiece of an ost that is.
I watched this movie with a different mindset then most. I was six years old when i boarded a C-130 at Yokota Air Base outside of Tokyo and flew to a small island in the Pacific. An island named Iwo Jima. I walked the sands, climbed Mt Surabachi, and saw the battlefield with my own eyes. 37 years later i still remember...
All war is hell. Bloody hell. Read Unbroken, the true story of Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner in the 1936 Olympics and then his plane gets shot down; he's on a raft in the Pacific with two survivors for more than 40 days, fighting off sharks; then he's a prisoner of war on a Japanese island. Truth be told, not all the Japanese who ran the camps were evil, but there was one who was. They called him the Bird. Many camps exterminated the POW's. In one case, 5,000 Koreans (there was no North or South Korea) were murdered. The Geneva Convention was a joke. The prisoners were starved and beaten. Very few talked about what was done to them when they returned to the U.S. They were broken and had PTSD, but there was poor treatment available. Also, the Japanese rampaged, murdered, raped, beheaded 200,000 Chinese before they bombed Pearl Harbor and 2400 Americans were killed that day, Dec. 7, 1941. In sum, no nation is perfect, obviously. But all nations at some point must be held accountable for their dastardly deeds and cruel and inhumane treatment of their fellow man. Before the 2 horrific bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the Americans, a "kill all" order had been issued. In other words, thousands of POW's would have been exterminated. Additionally, the Japanese starved their own people who were forced into military service in many cases.
my grandfather was a chinese soldier. i had heard a story about my grandfather coming across japanese POWs who were drafted and didn't want to fight, and he felt great sympathy for them. but i never knew him, and being chinese-american, i had a very hard time understanding the japanese perspective. i feel like this movie really showed me what my grandfather was wise enough to see by himself
that is all too true. and the sad thing is, I hear a lot of people trying to rewrite the history behind ww2 or in so many ways forget what actually happened.
@Coaco98 he didn't die...he was still alive and ready to be shipped out to a hospital ship and then off to a pow-camp... you should pay attention when you watch a movie...O.o
@Pieter van Broekhoven Well, I've been in Japan, and I could understand them just fine. And remember, they have to learn the fucking Alphabet! So, you're not allowed to say something untill you speak Japanese fluently
OK. I don't think this song has a name. But, the first and second parts of the song are here: Letters from Iwo Jima OST:End Titles part 1. czcams.com/video/-SGgCoH6jYk/video.html Letters from Iwo Jima OST:End Titles part 2. czcams.com/video/2_xV6baTByI/video.html There you go.
GwangJo Lee I don't know what you mean there was plenty of Honor nothing was wrong with the Japanese empire it worked fine for thousands of years it's just a simple fact they didn't have the supplies they thought they had to fight a long drawn-out War
Imagine being sent there as a Japanese soldier, the mental state you must have been in at the end ist beyond imagining, seeing hell all around you
yhea for some it better to die then keep living the condition and lack of food/ water I don't know how some still can fighting up to 1947 that crazy
that applies to all the soldiers.
The last Japanese soldier didn't surrender till 1974.
the trumpet version is so much more chilling than the piano version
this movie is one of the best I have seen, truly a masterpiece

I simply cannot get over how beautiful the scores in this film are. They flow like a song, yet they haunt you like a specter in the night...
I have no idea why i'm crying on this music. T_T

I remember when I first watched this movie, and I heard this melody.. not even the whole song.. just the melody.. it gave me such thorough chills.
The one of the most touching soundtrack i've ever heard!!!

Special Thanks to Mr. Clint Eastwood !

Scotty Shaw Chinese people were tortured by the Japanese in the war
@@slimemyhouse9877 Does that make every Japanese soldier evil? No.
Japan has do everything to protect themselves from allies....I love how they do everything they could do for their families...
There's no movie like Letters Of Iwo Jima,Flags Of Our Fathers, band of brothers and the pacific.
Perfectly said. And never will be
its so wonderfull song that i made it my main ringtone.
that is all too true. and the sad thing is, I hear a lot of people trying to rewrite the history behind ww2 or in so many ways forget what actually happened.
Thanks :)

@Coaco98 he didn't die...he was still alive and ready to be shipped out to a hospital ship and then off to a pow-camp...
you should pay attention when you watch a movie...O.o
Demasiada buena esta epopeya militar donde seve la barbarie de la guerra
@indigirl The melody catches you from the very first scene.
Kamikaze is not from your army but in our soul. Japan want's to fight till the end. They are not fears with allies like American soldiers
@Pieter van Broekhoven Well, I've been in Japan, and I could understand them just fine. And remember, they have to learn the fucking Alphabet! So, you're not allowed to say something untill you speak Japanese fluently
Tellement belle...
