>having the characters have the same morality as people did back then
oh dude then I have a 1-2 punch for you. fictionalized versions of real people who act like people living in the age.
both are good adaptations of the source material but the original one has un-subtitled Japanese so you're wholly reliant on the man's translator Mariko, a good creative choice for the time but I'm glad they put more of the Japanese characters in the second version
the main white man Blackthorn is an English Protestant who has a blood feud with the Portuguese who have already started colonizing Japan, because they're Catholic. this is huge in the book and it present in the second adaptation, can't remember how much of it is in the first
the original miniseries just got an HD remaster. it was shot very wide like they planned to crop it widescreen and put it in theaters overseas like they did with 'Salem's Lot so you can fill your screen without losing anything
It's on Paramount+ or wherever you sail
