"Red Beard" is a movie about the relationship between an old and a young physician. The older one teaches the younger one, who in first instance is only interested in getting rich, a lesson about ethics and compassion.

"We can only fight poverty and ignorance, and cover up what we don't know. Poverty's a political problem they say.

Red Beard is a defining film in the Akira Kurosawa filmography as it was his last film to be shot in black and white as well as his last teaming with Toshiro Mifune, one of the greatest actors of the twentieth century. In this stunning achievement, Mifune plays a grizzled, veteran doctor who takes a young, brash and arrogant doctor to be his partner in a clinic set in a horrible part of nineteenth century Tokyo.
