Yojimbo (A Requisite Cinema Screening) / Japan/ 1961/ Dir: Akira Kurosawa/ 110 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 96%
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.
Sanjuro (A Requisite Cinema Screening) / Japan/ 1962/ Dir: Akira Kurosawa/ 95 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 96%
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 weed 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.
Yojimbo and Sanjuro are screening as part of an ongoing Requisite Cinema spotlight showcasing Janus Films' 2025 restoration work of many of Akira Kurosawa's most celebrated works. Check Broadwaytheatre.ca for more titles!
