Ira Hayes [in a scene in the movie] says, Wouldn't it be great if the other guys - meaning the other three compadres who are dead - could be here on this train, eating with silverware and all these niceties? He's in a drunken stupor and he just says, "We shouldn't be here." And that sort of sums the whole thing up. He feels, I'm glad we're alive, but we sure as hell shouldn't be here. They were...

The rooms at Engyoji, tel: (81-79) 266 3240, are rather less grand but pleasant nonetheless, simply furnished with a futon and an urn of green tea.
