About Sansho Dayu (Sansho The Bailiff)
One of Kenji Mizoguchi's undisputed masterpieces, Sansho Dayu (1954) is a version of a famous Japanese folktale about an eleventh-century feudal official forced into exile by his political enemies. In his absence his children fall under the corrupting influence of the malevolent Sansho.
