Kurosawa, simply put, is a master of shot composition. The way he moves the camera within the frame is nothing short of brilliant, keeping all essential visuals within each shot and not sparing anything story wise in the process. Every Kurosawa film is special, and Yojimbo is no different. Toshiro Mifune completely sells you with his dry wisdom and his compassion from beginning to end. Yojimbo is the perfect example of these two true artists having the best time they possibly can while also executing a perfectly action packed, comical and smart film, a combination that is rarely seen in films nowadays.
