Sanshiro Sugata

Based on Tsuneo Tomita's novel, this story follows a hotheaded youth in 1880s Meiji Japan who apprentices to judo master Shōgorō Yano. He learns to replace brute jujutsu bravado with discipline and humility, maturing as he proves judo's spirit against old-guard challengers—including a deadly duel—while falling for his vanquished opponent's daughter.
