Kenji Mizoguchi's masterpiece Sanshô Dayû (1954) is a version of a famous Japanese folktale about an eleventh-century feudal official forced into exile by his political enemies. In his absence his children fall under the corrupting influence of the malevolent Sansho. In their study of the film, film scholar Dudley Andrew and Japanese literature professor Carole Cavanaugh highlight the cultural, aesthetic and social contexts of this film which is at once rooted in folk legend and a modern artwork released in the aftermath of World War II. This edition includes a new foreword by the authors.
