Kagemusha (1980)

Starring: Tatsuya Nakadai, Tsutomu Yamazaki
Director: Akira Kurosawa
Category: Drama
Studio: Criterion

Length:
 180 mins

 
 

 

In his late color masterpiece Kagemusha (The Shadow Warrior) director Akira Kurosawa returned to the samurai film and to a primary theme of his celebrated career—the play between illusion and reality. Sumptuously reconstructing the splendor of feudal Japan and pageantry of war, Kurosawa creates a soaring historical epic that is also a somber meditation on the nature of power. The Criterion Collection is proud to present Kagemusha for the first time in its full-length version.
