Costume Epics - Kagemusha (2 Disc Criterion Collection DVD)

Kagemusha (2 Disc Criterion Collection DVD)

In his late, color masterpiece Kagemusha, Akira Kurosawa returned to the samurai film and to a primary theme of his career - the play between illusion and reality. Sumptuously reconstructing the splendor of feudal Japan and the pageantry of war, Kurosawa creates a historical epic that is also a meditation on the nature of power. The Criterion Collection is proud to present Kagemusha for the first time in its full-length version in the United States.

SPECIAL FEATURES:
• New, restored high-definition digital transfer
• Audio commentary by Stephen Prince, author of The Warrior's Camera: The Cinema of Akira Kurosawa

• Image: Kurosawa's Continuity
• A series of Suntory Whiskey commercials made on the set of Kagemusha
• A gallery of storyboards painted by Kurosawa and images of their realization on -screen
