I know it's not an accurate film as far as Japanese history, but it's one of the few Hollywood films I know of that intentionally put a lot of focus on the samurai culture, which, while not 100% accurate, at least tried to be correct.<br /><br />And on a side note, one of my favorite professors recently came out with a book on the Pachuca (female version of the Pachuco) in America. I haven't read it yet, but she's certainly knowledgeable about all that stuff.<br /><br />Anywho, thanks for the cool giveaway. My email is in my profile.
