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.

Incredible Dupe
Color: Pink, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
I never leave reviews, but I was looking for a dupe blanket for my kiddos after getting a much more expensive brand blanket for myself, and this one is excellent. It’s double-sided so the same mega-soft on each side and cozy but not too heavy. I’m now getting them as Christmas gifts for everybody. A+ purchase

Warm, cozy and thick high-quality throw.
Color: Cream, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
This is thick, non-shedding blanket - and for cold, winter nights… THE BEST. My granddaughters found it to be too warm, but not this grandma! I’m fit, but dang, these super-cold Alaska nights allow me to stay warm and cozy! If you have someone who runs a bit on the colder side, they will love this blanket! It washes beautifully. Great value!

The ultimate "cozy" blanket—thick, soft, and incredibly warm
Color: 03- Tie Dye Black, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
his Bedsure blanket is the definition of comfort. One side features a velvety smooth faux fur while the other is a thick, plush Sherpa fleece. It’s significantly heavier than a standard throw, making it perfect for cold nights. The black color is deep and rich, and I’ve been impressed that it doesn't shed at all, even after several washes. It drapes beautifully over a couch or bed and adds an instant touch of luxury to the room. It’s the perfect size (50"x60") for curling up with a book or a movie.
