Hi all. Looking for a Japanese film that is at the end of the samurai era. Towards the end of the movie they are in a field with white cloth up covering gatlin guns and the samurai go to attack and are cut down. The army is visible upset and some are crying if i remember. This is not the last samurai. Unfortunately that is all i can remember about the film. Tha ks in advance for any help.

Could it possibly be The Last Samurai (2003)
starring Tom Cruise
Katsumoto orders a suicidal cavalry charge on horseback. The samurai withstand an artillery barrage and break through Bagley’s line. Algren kills Bagley, but the samurai are quickly mowed down by Gatling guns.
I appreciate the movie but that is not it. It may have been "Battle of nagashino 1575" I just seem to remember white and blue (or red) camps.

Sengoku jieitai (1979)? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083050/
– celebes.warty.pigThank you but that was not it. This just covered the time period when guns made the samurai irrelevant. Probably the same period as the last samurai.
