Hitokiri literally means manslayers, it is the title for an outstanding very dark historical samurai film aka Tenchu .
I'd like to see some of Hideo Gosha's work. I've not seen 'Hitokiri' but I did read Yukio Mishima when I was at school. I also saw Paul Schrader's biopic 'Mishima : A Life In Four Chapters' (1985) with Ken Ogata playing the author.
Yukio Mishima is an excellent actor, one particular incredibly powerful scene will haunt you, chillingly prophetic.. He is paired with Ayako Wakao in the wonderful crime drama , Man Of The Biting Wind (1960) ,Yasuzô Masumura … b&w promotion still, the film is in colour
