Although we are collectors of Kurosawa Akira's movies,the Twilight Samurai was such an authentic, refreshing film and pure delight from beginning to end. We wished there was a sequel to this. Please do watch the interview with the director and the main actor as a special bonus to the film. My mother recently visited us from Japan and watched the film together. Although it was my 3rd time to watch it, it still brought some tears. It was a special moment for us all to share this lost Japanese culture of 'Samurai tradition' of olden days but the family values still remain. You will not regret seeing this movie. Hurrah! Banzai!

Description
Based on a best-selling novel by Shuhei Fujisawa, veteran director Yoji Yamada's 77th movie is a multiple-award winning period film set in the last years of Japan's Edo period (mid 19th century) where a poor Samurai named Seibei (Hiroyuki Sanada) struggles to support his family. Through the climatic showdown between him and another Samurai, the film offers a fascinating glimpse into the intriguing chapter in Japan's history where the samurai way started to collapse under the weight of Westernization. Custom case.
