MAKIOKA SISTERS (a war-time period drama - slow but moving)
I didn't really get on with Suzuki's two films BRANDED TO KILL and TOKYO DRIFTER, although they're both held in high regard among western critics  |
Big fan of Japanese cinema
Hara Kiri
Yojimbo/Sanjuro
High and low
Are all must haves
Hopefully the release Throne of Blood, Sword of Doom on BD
