Description
DVD release of the samurai film "Ichimei (Hara-Kiri: Death of a Samurai)" directed by Takashi Miike of "13 Assassins." Music is composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto. Plot: Set during the 17th century after the age of provincial wars. Lots of samurai lose their works and houses, and mock suicide is prevalent among them to get work or money from successes. One day, a samurai Hanshiro (Ebizo Ichikawa) enters the House of Ii, and requests to commit seppuku (suicide by disembowelment) in their courtyard. A chief retainer of Ii family, Kageyu Saito (Koji Yakusho) believes Hanshiro is bluffing and tells the tale of a young samurai (Eita) who last came there and asked for the same thing. To dissuade others from extorting handouts from their group, they called his bluff and forced him to commit seppuku with takemitsu (a dull bamboo sword) he carried. After Kageyu's awful story, Hanshiro tells them a surprising truth. . . Includes 2D and 3D movies. Comes with a bonus DVD with making-of documentary. *You will need 3D compatible devices in order to watch this in 3D.
Special Feature / Bonus Track: teaser(s), trailer(s), TV spot(s)

世界41カ国にて公開決定、世界を震撼させた日本映画の最高峰がここに。 なぜ、男は、切腹を願い出たのか。そこに、秘められた真の目的とは何か―。17世紀。戦国の世は終わり、平和が訪れたかのようにみえた江戸時代初頭、徳川の治世。しかし、その下では大名の御家取り潰しが相次ぎ、仕事も家もなくし生活に困った浪人たちの間で【狂言切腹】が流行。それは裕福な大名屋敷に押し掛け「庭先で、切腹させてほしい」と願い出ると、面倒を避けたい屋敷側から職や金銭がもらえるという、都合のいいゆすりだった。そんなある日、名門・井伊家の門前に一人の侍が、切腹を願い出た。名は津雲半四郎。家老・斎藤勘解由は、数ヶ月前にも同じように訪ねてきた若浪人・千々岩求女の、狂言切腹の顛末を語りはじめる。武士の命である刀を売り、竹光に変え、恥も外聞もなく、切腹を願い出た若浪人の無惨な最期を―。そして半四郎は、驚くべき真実を語りはじめる。 2011年カンヌ国際映画祭[コンペティション部門]出品。2D本編、3D本編を同時収録(※3D本編の再生には対応したモニター、プレイヤーが必要になります)。メイキング・ドキュメンタリー、イベント映像ほかを収録した特典DVD付き(※DVDスペシャル・エディションの特典DVDと同様のものです)。
