If you loved Red Beard, try Yojimbo
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Akira Kurosawa, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Red Beard, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Yojimbo is
Rainy Japanese village streets, a worn sword. Two merchants clash, a ronin appears, playing both sides. Kurosawa's genre play sets the stage for a gritty showdown.
