Released in 2007 by Criterion, this box set features the re-releases of two of the best known films by director Akira Kurosawa and actor Toshiro Mifune: Yojimbo (1961) and Sanjuro (1962). The set makes the two DVDs much more affordable compared to the individual releases, although like all of Criterion's titles the set still sells at a premium price by most standards.
