Just I done purchasing my supplement, I went straight to Speedy.
And there it was on the rack: "Hara-Kiri : Death of a Samurai".
Although from the same director, Hara-Kiri was very unlike 13 Assassins. In 13 Assassins you would expect a lot of swords fighting but in Hara-Kiri, at most you probably sit watching with misty eyes.
Nonetheless, its still a beautiful movie to watch.
The story evolved around the fate of a ronin (masterless samurai) who feigned a seppuku to beg for money for his sick baby. The ronin ruse didn't work and poor ronin was forced to commit hara-kiri with a wooden blade.
Imagined how painful that was.
Learning the terrible tale, the young ronin's father-in-law took a revenge, but it all came to vain.
He got himself killed while he already lost his son-in-law, grandson and daughter.
Even worst, the one both ronins had an audience with, wasn't really a feudal lord. He was sort of a head in the house.
So what the purpose he ran amok preaching about samurai's honor over his already dead family? Poor guy!
My rate (IMDB): 9/10.
