Review of Zatoichi's Pilgrimage (1966) by Christopher B — 04 Mar 2014
From the opening scenes and updated style of the credits, we know this film breaks with aspects of the "Ichi-formula". A bit more introspective, this film instills the heart of the Zatoichi tales: he never killed anyone because he enjoyed killing.
The freshness continues to the end, where Ichi doesn't quite get to sneak away as usual. Thank you Katsu-san & Kazuo-san.
