Tomisaburô Wakayama, Fumio Watanabe, Gô Katô
1972
The story of a Ronin (i.e. a masterless samurai) who wanders the countryside of Japan with his small child, having various adventures.
Well, ain't this a wild ride? This ain't your typical action flick, but boy, it's got some serious moxie. The main character, he's like a cross between a samurai and a tornado. The action's gritty, real, and it makes you sit up and pay attention. It's got that old-school charm, mixed with a touch of savagery that's hard to look away from. I reckon it's a good watch for anyone who appreciates a bit of blood, sweat, and tears.
