Vacation-Staycation Eternal Blu-ray Catch-up! The other one of these two samurai films (I don't know why I included both pictures in each), this one is certainly more a film... 🎞️ Chapter 29: Samurai Marathon 🎬 The other film's only tie to reality was the main character was (theoretically) "based on" a real person who was known for his undefeated record in his 61 duels. Samurai Marathon on the other hand is inspired by an actual event that happened (which was also the start of the first marathon in Japan). This Japanese-British co-production is just a much better film, no matter how you look at it. I enjoyed it, and would watch it again (as opposed to the previous, which is a one time watch novelty I think). This one had actual story, and acting, and characters and circumstances you got to know some and care about. Plus is was exciting, and shot well, and not at all as goofy as it's name might sound to us here. Additional notes, it was also directed by the director of Candyman, has an appearance by Danny Huston, and is scored by consummate weirdo Philip Glass. 🎥 #SamuraiMarathon (#SamuraiMarathonMovie) #TakeruhSatoh (#SatoTakeru) #NanaKomatsu #DannyHuston #BernardRose #PhilipGlass #SwordFighting #SwordFightingFilm #JapaneseFilm #BritishFilm #JapaneseBritishFilm #JapaneseCinema #Samurai #SamuraiFilm #WellGoUSAEntertainment #2020 #iLoveMovies #vacationstaycation #eternalbluraycatchup #blurays #movies #films #bluray #movie #film #cinema #MovieGeek #MovieNerd (at Jersey City, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeXGdxWuVCQgq6KT_bB7tzPyUOLYWMjZbBfTwU0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
