Yojimbo: 4K Restoration
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, by Sergio Leone and Walter Hill, this exhilarating genre-twister remains one of the most influential and entertaining films of all time. Newly restored in 4K!
Dir. Akira Kurosawa / 1961 / Japanese with English subtitles / 110 min

“A film that combines the sitcom and the samurai film.” – Johnnie To

“Sure, Seven Samurai is the best known of Kurosawa’s canon, but I say Yojimbo takes the cake because it’s got one thing that Samurai doesn’t: a sense of humor. It’s also Toshiro Mifune’s best outing, bar none.” – Alton Brown
