France/Italy, 1971
Directed by Terence Young
Starring Charles Bronson, Toshirō Mifune, Alain Delon, Ursula Andress, Capucine
Approx. 112 min. 35mm.
Left for dead by partner Alain Delon after their robbery of the Japanese Embassy’s train to D.C., Charles Bronson is forcibly recruited to help Mifune recover a priceless presentational sword. Then a classic double act across the desert ensues, with cheerful rapscallion Bronson’s repeated escape attempts being foiled by stern straight man Mifune. For once Toshirō dubs his own English, to powerful effect in a speech on the end of the Samurai.
