To be a samurai meant owing nearly absolute allegiance to the leader of one’s clan, the daimyo. One often filmed yarn is about 47 genuine samurai committing harakiri en masse when their clan is disbanded. But what happens when the daimyo is unjust and plays with the lives of his exact samurai?
In SAMURAI REBELLION, a young samurai is forced by his daimyo to marry a difficult mistress who had dared to manhandle him. Lady Ichi surprisingly turns out to be a jewel, and Yogoro, her recent husband, grows to fancy her. When the daimyo changes his mind and has her kidnapped after several unsuccessful attempts to bully the family, Yogoro and his father Itaburo (Toshiro Mifune) singlehandedly select on the whole clan.
Before you know it, the blades are out of their sheathes, and bodies are falling all over the spot. Particularly spectacular is a duel between Itaburo and his friend Tatewaki (played by the huge Tatsuya Nakadai) in a windswept field of grass. Director Masaki Kobayashi (KWAIDAN, HARAKIRI) is at his best here; and numerous scenes are icily controlled and eerily glorious as he guides his camera, breaking down sequences into abstract geometrical patterns.

I can’t aid remembering the song in the musical BANDWAGON which summarizes HAMLET as “The king and the prince meet / And everyone ends up mincemeat.” As in HARAKIRI, there is a point to the mayhem here: The honor of a single family CAN outweigh the honor of the clan.
One of the 15 best movies ever made! (See the fact that all Amazon reviewers (22 of them) give it five stars!) . The set is

quite titillating. A woman, Lady Ichi, is forced by the regional Lord to marry into the family of a vassal (Samurai Isaburo played by the incomparable Toshiro Mifune) because she insulted the Lord in public. After two years, Isaburo’s son and Lady Ichi descend in love; they have a daughter. All is well except it becomes convenient for the Lord to interrogate return of the woman and annul the marriage…thus Lady Ichi is twice betrayed. Samurai Isaburo is incensed. He and his son resist the claim of the Lord to steal the woman benefit and literally fight to the death for the correct of Lady Ichi and his son to like each other and legitimize the daughter. Throughout, the movie is quite sympathetic to women issues and Lady Ichi is portrayed magnificently.
What makes the movie so outstanding is the map in which sound, music, and photography are combined to reinforce the themes of the film. Literally, every frame of the movie has some symbolic significance: the positions of the parties, the carefully phrased speech of the protoganists and agonists, the sound of wind. Every frame is an art fragment – like a detached life. (This is the style of another of the director’s masterpieces of historical Japan – HARAKIRI) . If THRONE OF BLOOD is the Japanese version of Macbeth, SAMURAI REBLLION is the Japanese version of the Iliad. I loved it.
