桃太郎侍

本片由三隅研次导演市川雷藏,浦路洋子,河津清三郎主演，于未知日本上映！

This is an early version of the traditional story of master swordsman Momotaro Zamurai in a theatrical version. Ichikawa Raizo is terrific in the double roles of demon Crusader (Onitaiji Momotaro) and his twin brother, Wakagi Shinnosuke, heir to the Sanuki clan. This long sought after classic from the brilliant team of Ichikawa Raizo and Misumi Kenji is one of the most charming and enjoyable movies in many years. Based on the Japanese folktale of the Peach Boy who fights evil, Momotaro bursts on the scene only to discover an evil plot by high ranking officials of his brother clan to usurp the succession process and install a new successor. It's easy to see why Ichikawa Raizo was such a mega-star in this superb motion picture!
