Description
Unanimously hailed as one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of the motion picture, the story is set in the 1600s, when the residents of a small Japanese village are seeking protection against repeated attacks by a band of marauding thieves. Offering mere handfuls of rice as payment, they hire seven unemployed "ronin" (masterless samurai), including a boastful swordsman (Toshiro Mifune). The samurai get acquainted with but remain distant from the villagers, knowing that their assignment may prove to be fatal. The climactic battle with the raiding thieves remains one of the most breathtaking sequences ever filmed. It's poetry in hyperactive motion and one of Akira Kurosawa's crowning cinematic achievements. This is not a film that can be well served by any synopsis; it must be seen to be appreciated and belongs on the short list of any definitive home-video library.Drew for friend...

I loved the movie Seven samurai a lot and it makes me sad that in the end some of my favorite characters died although I find it impressive that they manage to defeat all of them.

Ya, that they gave their lives in defense of the village was truly heroic.

Coolness! XD
I had always heard praises to this film, but wasn't able to see it until I got Turner Classic Movies and they ran it in a marathon of old Japanese films, it really was a great movie, I see why it became a classic ^^

Glad you dug the movie. Check out more Mifune in Yojimbo and Sanjiro if you have not already.

My heart never fails to leap when I see the Seven. First DVD I ever bought, and it still enchants and inspires me. I called myself educated after I saw this film.
Very nice re-rendering of an iconic image, and the 7th warrior 'occurs' as present.

Thank you so much. I painted another seven samurai (with all of them) about a year ago.
