Cinematography One

Japanese Movies

Chanbara, meaning "sword fighting," is a subgenre of Japanese jidaigeki (period drama) that parallels Westerns and swashbucklers. While early samurai films focused on drama and stoicism, post-WWII chanbara shifted toward action, especially in the 1970s, evolving into a more violent and exploitative style featuring antiheroes, revenge, nudity, and graphic swordplay. Though directors like Kurosawa and Mizoguchi made influential samurai films in the 1950s–60s, their works are considered art cinema, distinct from the later, bloodier chanbara popularized by creators like manga writer Kazuo Koike.
