CRUEL STORY OF THE TOKUGAWA SHOGUNATE (1964) - REMASTERED
Bakumatsu Zankoku Monogatari - Shot with haunting, blood splattering cinematography.
This film is like a Samurai version of Kubrick's FULL METAL JACKET that chronicles the brutal indoctrination of a young peasant into the ranks of the Shinsengumi without the usual whitewashing of their character. A wonderful, gritty look at the internal world of the Shinsengum from just after the Ikedaya Affair to just past the death of Yamanami and a powerful indictment of the brutality going on in Japan in the name of keeping the west out of the country.
Director: KATO TAI
Stars: OKAWA HASHIZO, OTOMO RYUTARO, JUNKO FUJI
1964 - JAPANESE with OPTIONAL ENGLISH SUBTITLES - 16:9 ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN - B&W - 99 MINUTES
