minus-squarechiliedogg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·edit-22 months agoSeven Samurai was made by Kurosawa, which became “The Magnificent Seven” and “A Bug’s Life”. He also made “Yoimbo” and is sequel “Sanjuro”, which became “A Fist Full of Dollars” and “For a Few Dollars More”. And he made “The Hidden Fortress”, which inspired “Star Wars.” Dude was influential.
