Yojimbo (1961) - 4k Remaster
The incomparable Toshiro Mifune stars in Akira Kurosawa’s visually stunning and darkly comic YOJIMBO.
To rid a terror-stricken village of corruption, wily masterless samurai Sanjuro turns a range war between two evil clans to his own advantage. Remade twice as A Fistful of Dollars by Sergio Leone and Last Man Standing by Walter Hill, this exhilarating genre-twister remains one of the most influential and entertaining films of all time.
Sergio Leone ran into significant legal trouble for producing A Fistful Of Dollars without crediting Kurosawa, costing him 15% of the film's profits and delaying the release for three years.
"Yojimbo is intimate to the point of claustrophobia. Its wit is wry, its characters flawed and its world-view uncompromisingly cynical...." Empire *****
"One of Japan's great contributions to cinema, the inspiration for spaghetti Westerns and the introduction of a new kind of film hero..." Apollo Guide
