Now you need to watch Seven Samurai. You will appreciate both movies more, if you see them for comparision. ( Coburn does the knife throwing scene in Seven Samurai great) and Toshiro Mifune is, as always, the John Wayne of Japan.
The seventh samurai, played by Mifune, corresponded to the character ( Chico ) played by Horst Buchholz in The Magnificent Seven.
I did watch Kurosawa’s 7 Samurai..a week ago on a Saturday afternoon. Thought it was over-hyped but it’s gritty and classic at the same time. People give me that stare that I have never watched these movies b4 but after getting Netflix it’s great.
Seriously, I;ve never seen Casablanca (will watch on Saturday night with the GF) nor ‘GONE WITH THE WIND (freakin 3 hours!) which she wants to watch too.
