Samurai Saga
aka: Aru kengo no shogai
Japan 1959, 111 minutes
Dir. Hiroshi Inagaki
Rating: [PG]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Action/Adventure / Romance
Feat. Toshiro Mifune, Yoko Tsukasa
Aroview: Feudal Japanese retelling of Rostand's 'Cyrano de Bergerac', with the charismatic Toshiro Mifune as the shogun-poet with a Pinocchio-sized nose. Courtship and swordplay merge seamlessly here to bridge 'macho' samurai tropes. Vividly shot in spiffy 'Tohoscope' colour, to great effect.
