Heads up, Akira Kurosawa fans! In anticipation of the March 23rd release of Criterion Collection’s Yojimbo/Sanjuro Blu-ray box set, we’ve got our hands on both Yojimbo and Sanjuro on Blu-ray to give away to one lucky winner.

Yojimbo Synopsis:
In Kurosawa’s sly companion piece to Yojimbo, jaded samurai Sanjuro helps an idealistic group of young warriors weed out their clan’s evil influences, and in the process turns their image of a “proper” samurai on its ear.


Sanjuro Synopsis:

To rid a terror-stricken village of corruption, wily masterless samurai Sanjuro (Toshiro Mifune) turns a range war between two evil clans to his own advantage in Akira Kurosawa’s visually stunning and darkly comic Yojimbo.
