I’ve enjoyed some of Akira Kurosawa’s works (Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Ran, Seven Samurai, Rashoman), and The Hidden Fortress is on my list, but I’d like to hear any of your suggestions for samurai cinema.

      Note that the newish Zatoichi movie is based off the old series of movies, and that Hara-Kiri is a remake of Harakiri (both of the latter based off the novel Ibun Ronin-Ki).
