A grand-scale adventure as only Akira Kurosawa could make one, THE HIDDEN FORTRESS stars the inimitable Toshiro Mifune as a general charged with guarding his defeated clan’s princess (a fierce Misa Uehara) as the two smuggle royal treasure across hostile territory.
Accompanying them are a pair of bumbling, conniving peasants who may or may not be their friends. This rip-roaring ride is among the director’s most beloved films and was a primary influence on George Lucas’s Star Wars. THE HIDDEN FORTRESS delivers Kurosawa’s trademark deft blend of wry humour, breathtaking action, and compassionate humanity.The Hidden Fortress (4K Restoration) showing at: November 3, 12:45 pm
