Read the Hammett article, and noticed that it repeated as
fact, a claim I've seen at times in discussions here, namely
that Kurosawa got his idea for Yojimbo from Red
Harvest.
I do see some similarities, but I sure see some big
differences too. Who of the Kurosawa or Hammett biographers
has made this claim and what basis did he or she give? I'd
like something more substantial than similarities.
Thanks. Apologies if this has been answered before and I have
forgotten. Sometimes I wonder whether I should eat a
peach.
