Ganryujima

The famed Japanese swordsman Musashi of the 17th century (played by Motoki Masahiro) is not the violent yet philosophical Ronin that has been the typical version played out in every "Musashi" movie to date. This time he is a vulgar, violent, unintelligent and crude bully, with the personality of an insane homeless bum who is the center of his own megalomaniacal universe. The movie focuses on a small (yet arguably the most famous) episode in his life - the duel with Sasaki Kojiro on Ganryu island.
