StoryDive | Samurai Films & Westerns: The Complete History of Two Iconic Film Genres @StoryDive | Uploaded February 2019 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Westerns and Samurai Cinema (Jidaigeki or Chambara films) are both iconic film genres with iconic film heroes, and over the years, they have had an odd relationship. One genre influenced the other, then the reverse, and so on and so on. In this video, I will not only break down the history of their relationship (who influenced who) but examine what makes them so interchangeable. What do the Samurai and the Gunslinger have in common and why does the story of one apply to the other?
Let me know your theories in the comments below.
