MIFUNE TOSHIRO stars in this full-length, stand-alone made for
TV Movie.
The Lowly Ronin is similar to his most famous role as the
Samurai without a name in Kurosawa's "YOJIMBO" and "SANJURO". Traveling about Japan seeking peace and happiness, but instead it seems that violence
and tragedy always cross his path.
When the 'Lowly Ronin' helps an orphaned teenage girl avoid
being turned into a prostitute, she then claims he is her father and they start
a farm as father and daughter until fate steps in and he must draw his sword.
As
with the other episodes in this series, Mifune's swordsmanship is impeccable and
as with his feature films, there is a particular move he does which is simply
unique and sensational.
A great story featuring some of the best sword work in
Mifune's illustrious career.
