Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
1 John 4:1 KJV
New International Version
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
1 John 4:1 NIV
- The Hidden Fortress (allthetropes.org)
Kakushi Toride No San Akunin (which translates approximately to “Three Bad Men of the Hidden Fortress”) is Akira Kurosawa’s first widescreen film. The film is a Jidai Geki with an interesting twist: rather than concentrating on The Hero, the film instead focuses on a pair of bickering peasants, with none of the other major characters putting in an appearance until twenty minutes or so in. Once the audience’s sympathies have been firmly attached to the peasants, the Hero, the Rebellious Princess, and the rest of the film’s major characters begin to show up. From then on, it’s a series of hairbreadth escapes as the protagonists have to travel through enemy territory to reach safety.
