Sanshiro Sugata, Part Two

Sanshiro Sugata, Part Two

Directed by Akira Kurosawa • 1945 • Japan

Kurosawa's first film was such a success that the studio leaned on the director to make a sequel. The result is a hugely entertaining adventure, reuniting most of the major players from the original and featuring a two-part narrative in which Sanshiro first fights a pair of Americans and then finds himself the target of a revenge mission undertaken by the brothers of the original film's villain.
