Directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, and adapted from the play by Seika Mayama, the film chronicles the end of the lives of the Forty-seven Ronin, which has become a (historically based) legend in Japanese history. The film was released initially in Japan in 1941, and not until much later (1960s - 1970s) in the west.
