PRODUCT DESCRIPTION (BACK COVER)
Seven Samurai (Shichinin no Samurai). A film by Akira Kurosawa.
'One of the purest adventure movies ever made' ROLLING STONE
'...the yardstick by which all other action movies should be measured' EMPIRE
In 16th century Japan a poor village is raided every year by a group of bandits until, driven to the brink of starvation, the villages decide to hire professional warriors to protect them. With only three meagre meals a day to offer as payment, their quest seems an impossible one.
A simple plot. flawlessly executed - Seven Samurai combines comedy, pathos, memorable characters, gripping tension and some of the finest action scenes ever filmed into an enthralling cinematic experience.
Kurosawa's masterpiece testifies to his admiration for the classic Western, and in 1960 John Sturges repaid the compliment by remaking Seven Samurai as The Magnificent Seven.
At 190 minutes this is the most complete version of the film available, and has been digitally remastered from a new print.
The Dvd features moving menus, chapter selection, on-screen biographies and a video essay by film historian Philip Kemp. The packaging contains a leaflet with film notes and director's biography.
It would be great if we could give this film the attention it deserves. It is after all one of the greatest movies ever made.

Condition: Used - Very Good. 2016: I've got a handful in as I want to try and sell as many of this wonderful Dvd as possible and have priced it as low as I possibly can so more people can enjoy it. The Dvds and the jewel case and pic slv are all in at least - 'used - very good' condition. Some come with the leaflet and these will go out first as it is great extra info.
