About Yoshitsune And Benkei
Remake of Yoshitsune to Benkei, a story about a young prince (Takezai) learning the arts of samurai warfare alongside his assigned bodyguard (Hayashi) while at the same time, tries to marry his beloved (Kinoshita) in times of war.
Directed by Naoki Uesugi, Yoshitsune And Benkei leans on a strong ensemble — Kousei Amano, Terunosuke Takezai, Tsuyoshi Hayashi — 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 2005.
