I had to laugh at the scene where Link (Bronson) is explaining what a horse is to Kuroda (Mifune, who was an expert horseman in real life). Apparently Link didn't know that there were horses in Japan before there were in America. In fact, the old name for Bushido (the Way of the warrior) was Kyuba-no-michi (the Way of the bow and the horse).
