Robert Tanitch reviews the latest DVDs
A wife has been raped and her husband murdered. The audience watches four separate and conflicting accounts of the same crime. A famous bandit says he murdered the husband. The wife says she did it.
The dead husband (speaking through a medium) says he committed suicide. So who is telling the truth? A witness says all three are lying. So what did really happen?
The film is memorable for its striking visual qualities: the racing through the forest, the fights, the downpour of rain, and also for the electrifying physical presence of Toshiro Mifune as the bandit, a wild, laughing braggart.
