One of the greatest films of all time, Akira Kurosawas Seven Samurai has influenced the work of directors from George Lucas to Steven Spielberg, and spawned remakes, most notably John Sturges acclaimed The Magnificent Seven. When 16thcentury farmers whose village is repeatedly attacked by merciless bandits ask an elderly, masterless samurai Takashi Shimura for help, offering nothing but food in return, he hesitantly agrees and assembles a band of warriors to defend and train the villagers. Boasting terrific performances with Shimura and Toshiro Mifune as a peasant masquerading as a samurai particularly memorable, superb camerawork, and expertly mounted battle sequences, Seven Samurai is undoubtedly one of the greatest action movies ever made.
