What Orochi Is About
Buntarō Futagawa's 1925 Japanese silent film carries Tsumasaburō Bandō, the biggest star of the period. It follows a samurai who loses his footing through misunderstandings and the traps his enemies set for him; whatever he does, society will not take him back. The film was first called Outlaw, but the censors refused it because presenting an outlaw as a hero was considered dangerous, and the title was changed to Serpent. It stands exactly between the earlier period films shaped by kabuki and the sword cinema that came after. Its willingness to blame the feudal order itself made it hard for its own moment.
