Crest of Betrayal (1994) is a cinematic adaptation helmed by director and screenwriter Fukasaku Kinji, blending two iconic Japanese narratives. The film is based on the historical account known as Chushingura Gaiden, which is widely recognized in the West as the saga of the 47 Ronin. This tale is one of Japan's most cherished samurai stories, revolving around a complex plot of vengeance carried out by 47 samurai. Their leader was compelled to perform seppuku after a failed attempt to eliminate a tyrannical adversary. The term "ronin" refers to samurai who are without a lord or master.
