About Two Daimyos
Yata, a boatman from Edo who is manipulated by the conspiracy of the Dewa Rokugo clan, is the spitting image of the young lord Yoshimitsu. The two young lords, the real one and the fake one, leave Edo and get mixed up on their journey. This is an exhilarating story in which Okawa Hashizo plays two roles, and love and swords are intertwined.
Directed by Kinnosuke Fukada, Two Daimyos leans on a strong ensemble — Hashizo Ōkawa, Masao Mishima, Shinobu Chihara — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1957.
