Yojimbo - law dawg - 09-06-2007 Anyone seen this film? I've seen Seven Samurai and Rashomon but never this one. Loved it. LOVED it. Anyone else?

And, I also saw "7 Samurai" and "Rashomon". So did you see "Kagemusha"? It's another best Kurosawa's film.

Shintaro Katsu played Zatoichi. But recent Zatoichi(2003) was Takeshi Kitano. Yojimbo - law dawg - 09-06-2007 ImDeranged Wrote:If you aren't aware Yojimbo has a sequel called Sanjuro. Also great.I've seen and knew the connection to the Western films but I didn't know about Sanjuro. I'll look for it. Thanks! Quote:Toshiro Mifune has a long list of Japanese films that inspired American remake's re-imaginings. To name a few:Don't forget that Seven Samurai was also made into that classic "Battle Beyond the Stars." Yojimbo - law dawg - 09-06-2007 Kenji Wrote:Of course I saw it!

Loved it. LOVED it. Yes, I have it in VHS. Excellent film starring one of my favorite actors. It was the inspiration for both Fistful of Dollars and Last Man Standing.

Yojimbo - RichE - 09-07-2007 "RED SUN" 'One Mosquito.....swwwiiissshhhhh.....No Mosquito!" Yojimbo - bones weep tedium - 09-07-2007 Yojimbo was partly inspired by the Dashiel Hammet novel 'RED HARVEST'. Miller's Crossing is another film in the 'family'. Star Wars has a few references to Yojimbo too. S'all good stuff.
