The Hidden Fortress: The Perfect Adventure Film

The Hidden Fortress, The (Japan, 1958) Director Akira Kurosawa, starring Toshiro Mifune So The Hidden Fortress I describe as being the perfect adventure film. In fact it is the blueprint for what most adventure films have. A heroic strong lead character. In tgis case played by Toshiro Mifune. There's also a princess who you could say is a strong female, I know alot of newer movies like to include that name now. And the 2 side characters which act as comic relief and make our lead character appear more strong. But on this watch through I noticed something different. The two peasant characters of Tahei and Matakishi are really the protagonists. Which is different because usually the strong hero is the main protagonist that we follow, but in this case we see him after the 2 peasants.
