If you loved Das Banner des Samurai, try Daredevil in the Castle
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Hiroshi Inagaki, and they both carry the bittersweet, epic, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Action / History / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Das Banner des Samurai, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Daredevil in the Castle is
You're a swordsman, the last of your clan, and you enter the war between Toyotomi and Tokugawa. But Osaka Castle looms, an impossible obstacle. Inagaki films action with a detached eye. The film leaves one wondering about the price of loyalty.
