Here is the famous battle sequence from Kurosawa's final masterpiece Ran.
This sequence with the sound muted and the background music playing is one of the greatest action sequences ever shot in the history of motion pictures.
The theme according to Kurosawa was that Gods are crying at human folly and violence - hence the mournful music and muted sound.
