Red Sun (Cult Classics)

Billed as the first ‘East meets West’ Western and directed by Terence Young, cult classic RED SUN (1971) is based on a true story from the American Wild West of 1870. When an outlaw named Link (Charles Bronson) is betrayed by his gang during a train robbery, he is forced by the Japanese Ambassador to help recover a priceless sword stolen by Link’s double-crossing partner Gauche (Alain Delon). Link and the Ambassador’s bodyguard, Kuroda (Toshiro Mifune), travel the West in pursuit of Gauche, kidnapping his girlfriend (Ursula Andress) along the way to lure him out. Joined in an uneasy alliance, they have only seven days to find Gauche or Kuroda must follow his samurai code of honour and die by his own sword.
