Sanjuro (4K Restoration)
Advertisement
Toshiro Mifune swaggers and snarls to brilliant comic effect in Akira Kurosawa's tightly paced, beautifully composed SANJURO.
In this sly companion piece to YOJIMBO, jaded samurai SANJURO helps an idealistic group of young warriors W**d out their clan's evil influences, and in the process turns their image of a "proper" samurai on its ear. Less brazen in tone than its predecessor but equally entertaining, this classic character's return is a masterpiece in its own right.

Widely considered one of the most influential filmmakers of the 20th century, Akira Kurosawa created transcendent works of art that challenged cinematic limitations, illuminating the universal truths of the human condition. The Coolidge is thrilled to present this retrospective of eleven new restorations of his films this August!
