Throne of Blood (1957)
Director: Akira Kurosawa
Cast: Toshiro Mifune and Isuzu Yamada

Restored and digitalized.
Set in the milieu of a samurai film, this is arguably one of the greatest
movie settings of Macbeth.

My opinion; Akira Kurosawa was at his best when retelling Shakespear and no
one did it better.
Kenneth Branough comes close, maybe equals at times, but does not have the
same intensity.
