I was wondering if anyone has any information on Komuso in movies? You can
often hear the shakuhachi in the background of Jidaigeki, samurai period
drama, but does anyone know of any movies where some of the characters are
Komuso? Prefferably the lead but.. I often hear stories of the
ronin/dandy type of shakuhachi weilding ruffian which seems like a good
base for some of these jidaigeki but can't seem to see any actual komuso. I
wanted to get a better idea of some of the stereotypical images that were
held of the komuso.
