Seven Samurai (70th Anniversary 4K Edition)
Dir. Akira Kurosawa
Starring Toshirō Mifune, Takashi Shimura, Yoshio Inaba
One of the most thrilling movie epics of all time, Seven Samurai tells the story of a sixteenth-century village whose desperate inhabitants hire the eponymous warriors to protect them from invading bandits. This three-hour ride from Akira Kurosawa—featuring legendary actors Toshiro Mifune and Takashi Shimura—seamlessly weaves philosophy and entertainment, delicate human emotions and relentless action, into a rich, evocative, and unforgettable tale of courage and hope. We are thrilled to celebrate its 70th anniversary with this new 4K restoration.
Seven Samurai will be presented with a 10-minute intermission.
