From his early days as a wild youth in Oshu, through his development as one of the great warlords during Japan's historic 'Sengoku' Period (Era Of Warring Clans), this is the story of Date Masamune, the 'One-eyed Dragon'. Shunned by his mother, he always had to prove himself worthy of his position as heir, and then leader. A tremendous story taken from the pages of history, starring the uniquely talented Shibata Kyohei, who was best known for his portrayal of Hideyoshi in 'Taikoki', this made for television movie is not to be missed. The action abounds as he learns to be a master of the battlefield while each feudal lord seeks to assume control of Japan. |
