Description:

Doku-ganryu Masamune - Exciting Warlord action abounds throughout with a historical tale that must be told!

Long thought to be one of the lost treasures of Japanese cinema that had been destroyed by MacArthur’s Occupation forces, this brilliant portrait of Samurai Warlord Date Masamune has recently been found and restored to its original form in a digital print that finally brings this classic tale to DVD with English subtitles.  From his early youth as an aggressive Warrior, through battle upon battle until he had virtually subdued all of his enemies, only to fall short of taking over the country because he had been born too late.
