故事簡介
三村新之丞是低級藩士，負責為藩主試毒，多年來從未見過藩主一面。鬱鬱不得志的新之丞，開始厭倦這種藩士生活，希望開一所劍術學校，與妻子加世過著平凡的生活。可惜一次試毒，改變了新之丞的命運。新之丞吃了有毒海螺，雖則保住性命，但雙目失明，不能再當藩士。為了維持生計，加世唯有請武士總管島田藤彌幫忙，希望他在藩主面前美言幾句，每月繼續發放俸祿給新之丞。新之丞以為藩主體恤，沒想到原來是妻子向總管苦苦哀求才得到俸祿。新之丞知道後大為震怒，更甚的是，原來島田一直都欺騙加世，發放俸祿一事他根本沒有功勞﹗新之丞對島田恨之入骨，決定跟精於劍術的島田決鬥。雙目失明的新之丞視死如歸，誓要跟島田決一死戰﹗
山田洋次 藤澤周平 武士三部曲終極籃篇
山田洋次是日本電影界殿堂級的導演，擅長拍攝溫馨情感劇，電影有笑有淚，以寫男人之苦見稱，透過大時代小人物的生活百態來表達他對社會的看法，故他非常欣賞暢銷作家藤澤周平的作品。藤澤周平善於寫古裝時代小說，筆下總是描寫社會低下階層、懷才不遇的武士，故事充滿對社會的控訴、對生命的無奈。然而，當中亦會淡淡然帶出武士與親人、朋友、情人之間的感情，增加抒情之感。這種剛中帶柔的風格跟山田洋次的風格不謀而合，於是2002年山田洋次與藤澤周平合作，首次把藤澤周平的武士時代小說搬上銀幕，稱為「藤澤武士三部曲」。第一部古裝武士時代劇是《黃昏清兵衛》，不但贏得多個日本電影獎項外，更獲得奧斯卡最佳外語片提名。第二部曲《隱劍鬼爪》於2004年上映，為第55屆柏林影展競賽電影，享譽國際。《武士的一分》是山田洋次武士時代劇的最後一部曲，山田洋次表示，本片跟以往的武士電影及山田導演以前的電影很不同，直接簡明、感人有力，既有激烈緊湊劇情，也有溫暖人心的愛情。難怪《武士的一分》甫上映就成為票房之冠，累積票房逾三十億日圓，更成為第57屆柏林影展觀摩電影。
星級演員殿堂導演坐陣 日本影壇夢幻組合
過往兩部曲，山田洋次都請來日本紅星擔任主角，《黃昏清兵衛》有真田廣之和宮澤里惠坐陣，《隱劍鬼爪》就由松隆子擔綱，至於今次獲邀演出的是日本數一數二的影視紅人木村拓哉。木村拓哉一直以來都是拍時代劇為主，他表示今次能夠與殿堂級導演合作是一個很寶貴的經驗，感到莫名興奮。本片更加令木村拓哉人氣再次急升，連帶之後主演的劇集《華麗一族》都成收視之冠。其他演員都是實力演員，有歌舞伎著名演員?東三津五郎、演技紅人?野高史、小林稔侍、桃井薰、緒形拳等。值得一提的是，山田洋次今次起用新人，請來毫無拍攝電影經驗的檀麗飾演新之丞妻子一角。檀麗原是寶塚歌劇團女星，本片是她初登銀幕之作，結果一鳴驚人，橫掃日本頒獎禮，贏得第49屆藍絲帶電影獎、第61屆每日映畫大賞等多個最佳新人獎。
橫掃日本頒獎禮 柏林影展觀摩電影
《武士的一分》在各個日本電影頒獎禮得到多項提名及獎項，其中囊括有日本奧斯卡之稱的第30屆日本電影學院大獎12項提名，包括最佳導演、最佳新人、最佳劇本等。女主角檀麗更贏得第49屆藍絲帶電影獎、第61屆每日映畫大賞、第80屆電影旬報頒獎禮最佳新人獎。木村拓哉更不負眾望，成為第16屆東京sports電影大獎影帝。除此之外，《武士的一分》更揚威國際，成為第57屆柏林影展觀摩電影。

Love & Honor
YOJI YAMADA Project
Directed by Yoji Yamada
(THE TWILIGHT SAMURAI, THE HIDDEN BLADE)
Starring: Takuya Kimura (2046)
A man has an Honor that must be kept till the end.
With the creators of the award-winning "THE TWILIGHT SAMURAI" and "THE HIDDEN BLADE", director Yoji Yamada completes his Samurai Trilogy…
The third of the Samurai Trilogy by Yoji Yamada.
In 2002, director Yoji Yamada ventured into the 'period-piece' genre of samurai movies for the first time in his long career with "The Twilight Samurai". From stories by Shuhei Fujisawa, this tale of the bonds between a father and his daughters swept that year's Japan Academy Awards with prizes in 15 categories, was selected in the Competition segment of the 53rd Berlin International Film Festival, and became the first Japanese film in 22 years to be nominated for the 76th Academy AwardsR as Best Foreign Language Film.
Two more Fujisawa stories were filmed as "The Hidden Blade", in 2004, and this love story between a man and a woman of different social castes was chosen to open the 17th Tokyo International Film Festival, for competition in the 55th Berlin International Film Festival, and drew audiences in even greater numbers than its predecessor, and was subsequently screened at film festivals around the world.
In this last of the samurai trilogy by Yamada, he chooses a story of a strong and deep love between a young samurai, who loses his eyesight in a mission, and his wife who eventually sacrifices herself in order to save her husband's honor. The samurai promises vengeance for his love, and also for his faith as a samurai.
Shinnojo Mimura is a lower-caste samurai of the Unasaka clan who lives in thrifty style with his beloved wife Kayo. Their days of peace and calm, though, come to an end when Shinnojo's duty as a food-taster for the lord of the clan, cause him to lose his eyesight. Kayo convinces the despairing Shinnojo not to kill himself, but is forced into asking help for her husband from the clan's Chief Clerk, Toya Shimada, and ends up offering herself to him. Discovering this, Shinnojo divorces Kayo and vows revenge on Shimada, one of the best swordsmen in the clan. Will he be able to win this reckless duel, and will he be able to regain the ties of love that bound him and his wife?
Playing the lead role of Shinnojo is Takuya Kimura, who drew world-wide attention with his role in Wong Kar-Wai's "2046", shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004. Here he takes on the difficult role of a samurai buffeted by a cruel fate that steals away his vision. In the part of his tenderly loving wife Kayo is Rei Dan, formerly a leading female-role actress with the Takarazuka Opera Company, here making her long-awaited film debut. Kabuki actor Mitsugoro Bando plays Shimada, the talented but sly clan official and swordsman who steals Shinnojo's wife and faces him in the final duel. In the role of Shinnojo's annoying Aunt Ine is Kaori Momoi, whose work at home and abroad including her performance in "Memoirs of a Geisha", has in recent years made her one of Japan's highest-profile actresses. Such names as Takashi Sasano (Bright Future), Ken Ogata (The Hidden Blade), and Nenji Kobayashi (The Twilight Samurai) round out a stellar cast list.
Director Yoji Yamada says of this film, "The Japanese people in the Edo period, in the last days of the samurai and the Shogun governments, was described as 'gentle, modest, and polite, their way of life as poor but clean, and the beauty of Japan's rural scenery as like a utopia.'
'BUSHI NO ICHIBUN' is both a gentle story of connubial love, and a tale of revenge and flashing swords. With this film I wish a respectful portrayal of the quiet lives of those ancestors of ours who lived in rural clan domains during this Edo Period.'
With the production budget of US$8million, principle photography has started December 2005, and projected for a wide release for the New Year's Holiday season at the end of 2006.
THE STORY
It is only a short time after Shinnojo Mimura (Takuya Kimura) is appointed to the post of food taster that he goes blind after a shellfish that brings on food poisoning is accidentally put into a lunch for the Lord of the Clan.
Until this time Shinnojo, as a lower-ranked samurai serving in the Lord's Body of Attendants with a 30-koku annual stipend of rice, has lived a thrifty but happy life with his wife Kayo (Rei Dan) and their old servant Tokuhei (Takashi Sasano), who has served the family since Shinnojo's father's time.
Kayo and Tokuhei, working desperately, manage to save Shinnojo's life, but realizing that not only will he have to spend the rest of his days in darkness, he will not even be able to continue his duties in the castle and will have to depend on other people for help until he dies, he falls into despair and resolves to commit suicide, by cutting open his stomach.
It is Kayo who, hiding the sword as she speaks, turns him away from the thought of harming himself.
'I cannot imagine life without you. If you're going to kill yourself, go ahead. As soon as you do, I will die by the same sword and follow you.'
However, the fact is that Shinnojo is unable to work in the castle any longer.
The question of how he will support his life and provide for the household from now on quickly becomes a problem for his relatives as well. Summoned by Shinnojo's uncle, who heads the main branch of the family, Kayo is told to approach the domain's Head Clerk, Toya Shimada (Mitsugoro Bando), who has influence at high levels of the clan, and ask him to use his good offices in having Shinnojo's stipend maintained, if necessary even at half its former level.
Eventually news comes from the castle concerning how Shinnojo's case is to be handled.
'The Mimura family name will continue. The stipend will remain as it is. Make efforts to see that Shinnojo Mimura receives care for the rest of his life.'
This is a completely unexpected act of generosity.
'I've given up the idea of killing myself, so put my sword back in the alcove for me,' Shinnojo tells Kayo that evening. Looking at her husband, now resolved to live, Kayo sheds a few quiet tears.
As Shinnojo gradually becomes used to living in darkness, his Aunt Ine (Kaori Momoi) conveys to him the rumor that Kayo has a lover. Shinnojo, although he trusts and loves his wife from his heart, suffers bitter anguish and jealousy, as well as a strong isolation in the dark, and eventually asks Tokuhei to follow Kayo, in order to learn the truth. The rumor is correct. Kayo, realizing that Tokuhei is following her, tells him everything. Her lover is the Head Clerk, Shimada. In return for his recommendation for Shinnojo's position, he has demanded her body.
'Just the thought, of my wife being stolen by the man who spoke for us, just to save this 30 measly koku of rice, makes me want to throw up. What's the Mimura name? For what and for whom do I need to keep this?' Shinnojo cries in devastation.
'It wasn't for the Mimura name. It was to save your life.' Kayo confesses as she begs Shinnojo to take her life. Out of anger and despair, Shinnojo divorces her. It is known that Kayo, taken in by the Mimura family as a child, has no family or relatives to depend on. Quickly packing up a few possessions, she vanishes into the dark night.
Shinnojo begins to practice with his sword. 'I want to deal the man who stole my wife at one blow of my sword. The samurai name could be taken, but they cannot take away my honor of the samurai.' Dark anger drives him to furious practice, and he hones his ability to read an opponent's intentions in their slightest move.
Eventually Shinnojo learns the truth. Shimada merely took his pleasure with Kayo; not one word did he say about how Shinnojo was to be treated to the Lord.
Shinnojo cannot stand it a moment longer. He challenges Shimada to a duel.
Not taking the initiative, Shinnojo concentrates intently, waiting for his opponent to make a move. Unable to see, he can only win by being able to sense how his opponent is approaching.
Shinnojo also takes to heart the words of his fencing master.
'Take death along with you. Do not let the fear of death take you, but make it your soul. In there, you will see victory.'
The final showdown draws close…
