Brave Ronin
Directed by: SASAKI Yasushi
Cast: ICHIKAWA Utaemon, TAKACHIHO Hizuru, MATSUO Kazuko, KITAHARA Shigemi
A story of ronin living in the impoverished outskirts of Edo come together to fight
against the evil rich Hanya crime family.
The action begins when a woman escapes
from their clutches with the help of a brave ronin who is willing to put his life on the
line and stand tall against the brutal town bosses.
Ichikawa Utaemon gives one of his
better performances as Tsugumo Hanbei, a man among men. While others may
quake in fear he rises to the occasion. The fighting is fast and furious in this superb
tale of old Japan!
