A general and a princess must dodge enemy clans while smuggling the royal treasure out of hostile
territory with two bumbling, conniving peasants at their sides; it's a spirited adventure that only Akira
Kurosawa could create. Acknowledged as a primary influence on George Lucas' Star Wars, The Hidden
Fortress delivers Kurosawa's inimitably deft blend of wry humor, breathtaking action and humanist
compassion on an epic scale. The Criterion Collection is proud to present this landmark motion picture
in a stunning, newly-restored Tohoscope edition.
