  • The Hidden Fortress (隠し砦の三悪人 Kakushi toride no san akunin?, literally, "The Three Villains of the Hidden Fortress") is a 1958 jidaigeki[2] film directed by Akira Kurosawa and starring Toshiro Mifune as General Makabe Rokurōta (真壁 六郎太?) and Misa Uehara as Princess Yuki.
  • The Hidden Fortress (隠し砦の三悪人 Kakushi-toride no san-akunin) is a Jidaigeki film directed by Akira Kurosawa.
  • Kakushi Toride No San Akunin (which translates approximately to "Three Bad Men of the Hidden Fortress") is Akira Kurosawa's first widescreen film. The film is a Jidai Geki with an interesting twist: rather than concentrating on The Hero, the film instead focuses on a pair of bickering peasants, with none of the other major characters putting in an appearance until twenty minutes or so in. Once the audience's sympathies have been firmly attached to the peasants, the Hero, the Rebellious Princess, and the rest of the film's major characters begin to show up. From then on, it's a series of hairbreadth escapes as the protagonists have to travel through enemy territory to reach safety.

This film is best known in the West for the idea of focusing on the peasants at first; this storytelling tool provided the inspiration for two droids named R2-D2 and C-3P0.
