'47 RONIN' EPIC TRAILER WITH
KEANU REEVES & RINKO KIKUCHI
And here it is - the long awaited first trailer for Keanu Reeves Asian epic 47 RONIN which opens up in cinemas this Christmas! From ancient Japan's most enduring tale, the 
large scale epic 3D fantasy-adventure 47 RONIN is born. Keanu Reeves leads the cast as Kai, an outcast who joins Oishi (Hiroyuki Sanada), the leader of the 47 outcast samurai. Together they seek vengeance upon the treacherous overlord Kira (Tadanobu Asano) who killed their master and banished their kind. To restore honor to their homeland, the warriors embark upon a quest that challenges them with a series of trials that would destroy ordinary warriors.The film, set in the 18th century Japan, also has Rinko Kikuchi as Mizuki, a powerful sorceress lady who serves lord Kira. The story is set in the world of witches and giants. The lack of marketing for the film is confusing having in mind its extremely pricey budget of almost $170 million! The
costumes, stylized versions of traditional kimonos, are designed by Penny Rose who did costumes for PRINCE OF PERSIA SANDS OF TIME, THE LONE RANGER, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN movies....
DEZZY'S HISTORY CLASS The film is actually based on a true story of the forty seven Ronin. It is considered as the most famous example of Japanese samurai code of honour. Those samurai were left leaderless (ronin is a name for such a samurai) when their lord had to commit ritual suicide after he offended a court official named Kira. It took them two years to plan and avenge their master by killing Kira and after that they all committed ritual suicides themselves.
