Description

In 1870, a gang robs a train and steals a ceremonial Japanese sword meant as a gift for the U.S. President, prompting a manhunt to retrieve it. TWO DESPERADOS... ONE HELLCAT... AND A SAMURAI... THE GREATEST FIGHTING FORCE THE WEST HAS EVER KNOWN! Cultures collide in Terence Young's 'East Meets West' classic Red Sun. Shot in Almería, Spain, and starring four intercontinental superstars - America's Charles Bronson (The Great Escape), Japan's Toshiro Mifune (Yojimbo), Switzerland's Ursula Andress (Dr. No), and France's Alain Delon (Le Samouraï) - Red Sun is a Western with a global flair like no other! A ceremonial Samurai sword intended as a gift to the U.S. President from the Japanese ambassador is stolen by the devilish rogue, Gauche (Delon). To restore their honor and return the sword to its rightful owner, disgraced samurai Kuroda Jubei (Mifune), double-crossed bandit Link Stuart (Bronson), and femme fatale Christina (Andress) must set aside their differences and hunt down the merciless Gauche across the beautiful vistas of the American west. Red Sun has something for everyone: samurai swords, revolvers, grandiose set pieces, and an exquisite score from Maurice Jarre (Lawrence of Arabia). Uncover this hidden gem of a western in this astonishing presentation.
