The Million Ryo Pot
Digitally remastered, this 1935 film is one of the only surviving masterpieces of Sadao Yamanaka. This monumental work of early Japanese cinema is a spin-off of a popular film series about the character Tange Sazen. While the other films in the series portray Sazen as a nihilistic ronin, The Million Ryo Pot is a comedy drama, where Sazen is characterised with humour and humanity.
The lord of the Yagyu Clan in Iga discovers the kokezaru pot he used to own contains a treasure map. However, the pot has already been given to his younger brother, whose wife has sold it off to a junk dealer. The pot eventually ends up in the hands of Chobiyasu, a young orphan boy, who is using it as a goldfish bowl. As the chase after the treasure begins, Chobiyasu is taken in by Tange Sazen, a bodyguard who is unaware of the pot’s hidden secret.
