Akira Kurosawa transforms Shakespeare’s Macbeth into a haunting samurai tragedy set amid the fog, forests, and fortresses of feudal Japan. Starring the incomparable Toshiro Mifune, Throne of Blood is one of cinema’s most powerful adaptations of Shakespeare.

Literary critic Harold Bloom called it “the most successful film version of Macbeth.”
