Seven Samurai
16th-century Japan: a samurai warrior who has fallen on hard times is asked to defend a poor village that is under attack by bandits. He and six other samurai must teach the villagers how to help themselves. This hugely influential 1954 epic weaves delicate human emotions and relentless action into a rich, evocative, and unforgettable tale of courage and hope.
