About

You can stream Sanjuro (1962) on Criterion Channel with a subscription.

In this companion piece and sequel to "Yojimbo," jaded samurai Sanjuro helps an idealistic group of young warriors weed out their clan's evil influences, and in the process turns their image of a proper samurai on its ear.

This cynical ronin trades the polished poise of traditional samurai cinema for a sharp, irreverent wit and a messy, pragmatic approach to violence. He dismantles the romanticized myths of honor by teaching a group of naive youths how to survive a deadly political purge.
