Classic Japanese Cinema Discussion Thread

Hi wmcclain,

I am a massive fan of Sasaki Kojiro (The person whom main character Miyamoto Musashi fights in the last duel). These were semi-real characters from Japan. I have seen Samurai Trilogy and liked them immensely. Mifune was almost perfectly build for playing Samurai. Also loved the direction of Inagaki. 8/10 from me.

Our friend manfromplanetx also introduced me to a director called Tomu Uchida who has also made a 6 part movie series on Miyamoto Musashi. I am looking forward to see those as well. My username on old IMDB used to be Sasaki Kojiro for sometime!
