Review of Goyokin (1969) by Walter M — 16 Dec 2008
One of the great samurai films of all time. it takes a small hit because of a very slow start, but once the film picks up steam it is marvelous. nakadai is brilliant as always, the cinematography is sensational, and the locations are beautiful providing the perfect mood of serenity for the story.
this film would not have worked as well were it not shot in deep winter, but once the mood is set it captures the soul. great film.
