Review of Yojimbo (1961) by Nelson P — 29 Jun 2010
Yojimbo is one of the greatest and most stylish films ever made.Yojimbo has all of Kurosawa's qualities and none of the flaws. The music score is an essential element of the plot, almost a character itself.
One of the unique things about Yojimbo is the central character. He is an anti-hero. We see him initially as a killer and a man greedy for money. But then, he saves a family by re-uniting mother and child and giving them all the money he was advanced.
Clint Eastwood could only aspire to equal such a performance or be as cool as Toshiro Mifune.One of the greatest movies by one of the greatest directors of all-time.
