SHOGUN (1980)
STARS: Richard Chamberlain, Toshiro Mifune, Yoko Shimada, Damien Thomas, Alan Badel.
DIRECTOR: Jerry London. DURATION: 125 mins.
SYNOPSIS: An English navigator is shipwrecked in Japan and overcomes the native people's hostilities to become the first Western samurai warrior.
RC PLAYS: John Blackthorne.
Drastically cut down version of the acclaimed 12 hour mini-series based on James Clavell's epic novel. Unfortunately the condensing of the tale leaves it disjointed and confusing - it's best to stick with the original instead.
