My star rating is for the film itself, which is very good early Kurosawa. HOWEVER, I own the Mei Ah Hong Kong disc, which is completely unwatchable due to a bad pressing. I have had problems with other DVDs from this company, so I will wait to see what others say before buying it myself. Hopefully, Mei Ah has corrected the problem for this release.

I watched Kurosawa's They Who Step on Tiger's Tail yesterday and am here today to order a copy. Everything about it was excellent. It was made right after WWII and had a meager budget (it looks like it could have been shot in a patch of woods behind the studio), but that only adds to its charm. The actors more than rise to the task; the actor who played Benkei is inspirational. Two thumbs up!
