Storyline

Trivia
Most of the samurai in the film can be seen carrying two blades. This was a practice in Edo Japan known as daisho. Translated this literally means 'big-little'. The bigger blade was the katana, which was generally used for combat and duelling. The short sword was either the wakizashi or the tanto, the latter of which is most customarily associated with the ritual suicide of seppuku or Harakiri (translated as 'belly cut').

Goofs
At 1:13:16 into the Criterion Collection DVD version, when the shot changes to Yogoro (played by Gô Katô)---just as he begins to verbally caution the lord and his retainers (after having delivered the petition)---there is a boom mic bobbing up and down about 10 inches above Gô's head, just on the edge of the frame. Then, in the same shot, as Gô is rising to his feet, the mic can be seen in front of his forehead. The mic then casts a shadow on his forehead just before the shot changes to a closeup of his face.
