SHOGUN(1980)


One of the greatest "mini-series" ever presented on television!
This stars Richard Chamberlain(Dr. Killdare, The Thornbirds) as
the main character! Along the way he meets up with John Ries-
Davies(Raiders Of The Lost Ark, the Lord Of The Rings trilogy,
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Indiana Jones and the Dial
Of Destiny), William Morgan Sheppard(Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered
Country, Star Trek: TNG episode "The Schizoid Man"), with Orson
Wells doing the narrating!

Part 1: Shows how John Blackthorne got to Japan and wound up
in prison!

Part 2: John starts his Japanese training, as well as getting
closer to the woman who's respondible for this learning!

Part 3: John has risen to the ranks of now being a
samurai! What he doesn't know is that he's beome the
biggest threat to those who would want all the power!

Part 4: John is given his soldiers, ship and command,
but has he really! This is the last part of the mini-
series, and we see what happened to many of the main
characters!!

COMMENTARY ON SELECTED SCENES

INDIANA JONES PREVIEW TRAILER

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

One of the best period pieces captured on film made even better
because of location and exquisite scenery the costumes are
stunning and the Japanese actors and extras are awesome. Set
in their environment (Japan) it sets the scene and tone of the
whole show. There are bad reviews on some small details but it
doesn't take away the dedication and hard work that everyone
has put in this production. Richard Chamberlain and all the
other actors and actresses were also great in playing their
parts to make us believe that we were transported to that
period and time. Thanks to all cast and crew for a job well
done. - bentwilson-34719
