Action/Adventure - Samurai Trilogy (Criterion / 3 Disc DVD Set)

Samurai Trilogy (Criterion / 3 Disc DVD Set)

The Samurai Trilogy, directed by Hiroshi Inagaki and starring the inimitable Toshiro Mifune, was one of Japan’s most successful exports of the 1950s, a rousing, emotionally gripping tale of combat and self-discovery. Based on a novel that’s often called Japan’s Gone with the Wind, this sweeping saga fictionalizes the life of the legendary seventeenth-century swordsman (and writer and artist) Musashi Miyamoto, following him on his path from unruly youth to enlightened warrior.

With these three films - 1954’s Oscar-winning Musashi Miyamoto, 1955’s Duel at Ichijoji Temple, and 1956’s Duel at Ganryu Island—Inagaki created a passionate epic that’s equal parts tender love story and bloody action.

SPECIAL FEATURES:
• New high-definition digital restorations of all three films, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks
• New interviews with translator and historian William Scott Wilson about the real-life Musashi Miyamoto, the inspiration for the hero of the films
• Trailers
• New English subtitle translations
•PLUS: A booklet featuring essays by film historian Stephen Prince and Wilson
