The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Recently discovered this was coming along as Patrick Macias mentioned he was working on the liner notes for an upcoming Adness DVD of the film. It’s retitled ‘Swords Of Vengeance’.
So, now i have found the artwork and specifications I can post this, and you can add it to your preorders (if you want). Surprising that this isn’t one those Homevision releases, or any other label, and glad the artwork isn’t as generic as all those Sonny Chiba discs from Adness.
It seems according to the listing I am looking at the film is full frame (let the debate begin), and that the disc only includes a Surround 2.0 sound mix, and only seems to have a trailer as an extra.
The synopsis, which must have been written by Adness and will be widely seen reads, “When Asano, the young master of Ako Castle, draws his sword on his elder, Lord Kira, he is ordered to dissolve his clan and commit hara-kiri. With the help of the now-masterless Ako warriors, Asano’s devoted chamberlain Oishi (Kinnosuke Yorozuya, Shogun’s Samurai – The Yagyu Clan Conspiracy) begins to plot an elaborate revenge, two years in the making. As the lines of loyalty and betrayal are drawn, the stage is set for an explosive battle with swordplay expertly choreographed by Chiba himself.”
