Another classic Kurosawa-Mifune collaboration on the samurai era
Sanjuro was Akira Kurosawa’s follow up to the widely popular Yojimbo film starring Toshiro Mifune as the nameless ronin (masterless samurai). The previous movie was like a commentary on the end of the samurai era where gangsters took advantage of the common people and the government was largely absent. There were still men of honor however like Mifune’s character even though he looked like your typical wandering swordsman with a rough exterior simply looking out to sell himself to the highest bidder now that there were no more wars.<br /><br />Sanjuro had Mifune return with those features, this time helping a group of young samurai who were hoping to overturn the corrupt members of their lord’s administration. Mifune enters on the first scene to tell them they are all naïve. Who they thought was the real bad character was actually good, and the one they turned to was actually the villain. Not only that he was going to kill the young samurai. Needless to say Mifune comes to aid these novices. The opening shows that Mifune although a grizzled old fighter is still much smarter than most. He goes on to take on a horde of the clan’s samurai to show that his skills are still top notch as well. Thus begins Sanjuro.<br /><br />Where Sanjuro had Mifune doing a lot of plotting against two factions, in Sanjuro there is more outright action and comedy. There are several sword fights where Mifune cuts down clansmen. The group also kidnaps one henchmen, and puts him in a closet only for some ladies to let him go, feed and clothe him. He comes out of the closet occasionally and gives advice to the young samurai and then goes back into the closet.<br /><br />The ending is a classic full of sword play and philosophy at the same time.<br />C
