Samurai from Nowhere (1964)
Misawa Ihei (Nagato) is traveling with his wife Tae (Iwashita Shima) who abhors the practice of sword fighting for prize money. Tae is the daughter of the clan's chief counselor who married the low-ranking Ihei to avoid becoming the clan lord's mistress. Into the mix comes Oba Gunjuro (Tetsurō Tamba), a mysterious ronin who will do anything for money. This leads to a fitting climax as the forces of hate and love converge while the couple attempt to break through the border!

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
