Seiji Miyaguchi wanted to turn down the role of Kyuzo, because he'd never done any movie swordplay before. Akira Kurosawa convinced him that he would make the sword scenes work through camera angles and editing, and Miyaguchi ultimately agreed to take the part. Shortly before shooting, he took a two-day "crash course" in swordplay, and by the end he was so exhausted he could barely move when photography actually began.
