About this product

Product Information

During a civil war in 16th-century feudal Japan, two cowardly farmers (Minoru Chiaki and Kamatari Fujiwara) stumble upon Makabe (Toshirô Mifune), a fierce army general. Escaping from hostile territory, General Makabe embarks on a mission to rescue both Yukihime (Misa Uehara), the willfull princess of his ruling house, and the royal fortune. In the selfish hopes of finding the gold, the two misfits accompany the hardened soldier through dangerous mountain passes.In addition to its status as one of Akira Kurosawa's finest films, THE HIDDEN FORTRESS is especially notable for its influence on director George Lucas's STAR WARS. Lucas admittedly borrowed much from Kurosawa's lighthearted epic; the two bickering misfits were the inspiration for R2-D2 and C-3PO, while Princess Leia was largely patterned after the feisty Lady Yukihime. Both Luke Skywalker and Han Solo contain elements of General Makabe, but neither character matches Mifune's disciplined ferocity.

    It was used so quality was and as is, was as described, value was comparable to other on eBay. Appearance was as excepted Seller is a quick shipper, however USPS was the slowest I ever seen. According to the tracking it crisscrossed the central untied states twice, this is no fault of the seller as they control shipping once it leaves there hands. I would buy again from the seller

    A Criterion Essential

    Kurosawa perfected his art with this morality tail. Dynamic characters with crisp personalities adorn this adventure epic about responsibility and ethics in times of crisis. Criterion has immortalized this film in a clean cut package with special features, including an interview with George Lucas.

    A classic

    Classic Kurosawa film - the two peasant/farmer characters are the basis for R2D2 and C3PO. Funny and entertaining.
