Five classic samurai films by the legendary Japanese director, Akira Kurosawa. Includes Seven Samurai, The Hidden Fortress, Yojimbo and Sanjuro.

'Seven Samurai' (1954) tells the story of a group of 17th-century warriors recently detached from the powerful masters who once paid them. Veteran samurai Kambei (Takashi Shimura) is the leader of the group hired by the residents of a village suffering at the hands of a marauding band of thieves.

Five of his cohorts are trained warriors, but the sixth, Kikuchiyo (Toshiro Mifune), is actually the son of a farmer, desperate to earn his spurs on the battlefield. The basics of the story served as the blueprint for the western classic 'The Magnificent Seven'. 'Throne of Blood' (1957), Akira Kurosawa's film version of 'Macbeth', transfers the action to medieval Japan.

A samurai warrior (Toshiro Mifune) is urged to murder his lord (Takashi Shimura) and his best friend (Minoru Chiaki) by a forest spirit and an ambitious wife (Isuzu Yamada). Kurosawa renders 'the Scottish play' through the conventions of traditional Japanese Noh theatre, creating what was reputedly TS Eliot's favourite film. The famous ending sees Toshiro Mifune caught under hails of arrows.

Winner of the Best Director Award at the 1959 Berlin Film Festival, 'The Hidden Fortress' (1958) is regarded by many to be one of Kurosawa's finest, and has been acknowledged by George Lucas as the principle inspiration for 'Star Wars'. Set in 16th-century Japan, the story centres on rival clans, hidden gold and a princess in distress. Tahei (Minoru Chaiki) and Matashichi (Kamatari Fujiwara) are two cowardly soldiers on the run from an advancing enemy army.

As they search the country for a cache of secret gold, they join forces with Rokurota Makabe (Toshiro Mifune), a samurai warrior who is escorting a fiesty princess (Misa Uehara) through enemy territory. The mismatched travellers then have to fight a number of battles before they finally come within sight of their goal. Kurosawa combines elements of the western and the film noir in the classic adventure 'Yojimbo' (1961).

Yojimbo (Toshiro Mifune), a freelance Samurai warrior, sells his services to rival factions in a small Japanese village. When he is betrayed, he turns his skills against his former employers, determined that the two warring sides should destroy each other. 'Yojimbo' was later remade by Sergio Leone as the Clint Eastwood spaghetti western 'A Fistful of Dollars'.

In the samurai spoof 'Sanjuro' (1962), a sequel of sorts to 'Yojimbo', shabby samurai Sanjuro (Toshiro Mifune) teams up with eight young warriors who seek out corruption among the elders of their clan. They also embark on a mission to rescue a kidnapped chancellor from a corrupt war lord.

Great Quality
My son Loves this Jacket. He specifically asked for one for Christmas and this one met his every expectation. It is great quality. It is thick and warm without being too bulky. I sized up for him since he is a growing teenager and it still fits great and he will be able to wear it next winter too if he wants.

Cotton as Stylish as Snow
So far, after only wearing it a handful of days, I have already fallen deeply in love with this jacket. With its quality fleece jean material and stylish look, it's arguably climbed at record speed to being my favorite winter jacket thus far. It won't exactly cut it for the days of extreme cold, but it's practically perfect for those high 30s to low 50s degree Fahrenheit weather! The cotton on the inside is both soft and warm, and the overall fit of it hits a perfect sweet spot of being weighty without feeling too hefty or dragging on the body. The pockets aren't the deepest in the world, but with four of them, they'll be more than able to carry an decently sized arsenal of your everyday items. It lays on nicely, and is able to be worn with an extra layer or two underneath, in case a bit of extra warmth is needed. The only caveat that I could give it, hence why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, is that if you choose to dawn on clothes that are rather lint susceptible, this jacket will be a direct enemy to it. But that is where the criticisms start and end, and is why I wish there were a way to give a product a 4.5 stars review here on Amazon. Otherwise, this is a must buy for anyone looking for a winter jacket that packs a bit more visual finesse than a typical puffer jacket. If only I had the sense to buy a winter jean jacket such as this one sooner rather than later!

Absolutely loved this
First of all, I loved that it came in a nice transparent bag. And it is the perfect fit. The inside is lined sherpa fleece, which is really warm in freezing temperature. The outside is denim material. It's not stretchy but is soft from inside. The color I got is dark brown.
