Samurai: The Last Warrior (2004 TV Movie)
9/10
VERY interesting documentary if you like Japanese History
2 December 2004
This is a very interesting documentary dealing with the historical background surrounding Japanese Samurai. clearly intended to jump on the 'Last Samurai' band-wagon, it is actually a great insight in to the myths and facts around the Samurai Warriors. Featuring some extensive interview footage of a couple of experts (including a very enthusiastic British guy - Dr Turnbull?) and some interesting pictures and graphics, it's a fascinating look at Japanese culture & history. It also has some clips from a few of the great Samurai movies, but these are really secondary to the information presented by the experts in the course of the documentary.

Enlightening.
