Viewing Notes

Another movie for Yuriko Hoshi week and another revisit bc I’ve only viewed on my laptop. Plus I really enjoy this one which is more of Toshiro Mifune film and it’s got a loaded Toho cast.

Yep this is a fun one especially for Mifune who is in nearly every scene. Love the ending! A shame this hasn’t gotten a good release here.
