- SynopsisAkira Kurosawa’s tribute to the widescreen action westerns of John Ford, Yojimbo stars the great Toshiro Mifune as the film’s enigmatic samurai, a scruffy itinerant warrior who wanders into a town and right into the middle of a war between two clans.
After its huge success, Kurosawa and Mifune teamed up again a year later to make Sanjuro, in which the titular character runs rings around nine naïve, clean-cut samurai and two genteel ladies – while also cleaning up a spot of corruption in local government. - Specifications
