Lucha, Zatoichi, lucha

You're a wandering blind swordsman, befriending a woman and her baby. But gangsters murder her, thinking she's you. Now you must deliver the child to its father. A pickpocket reluctantly assists, though neither is prepared for the father's reaction. Misumi's widescreen compositions highlight Zatoichi's isolation.
