SPECiAL NOTES : I don't think this miniseries should require any
introduction.  Based on the novel by James Clavell,
this epic follows the English pilot John Blackthorne
as he is caught in the middle of a brewing civil war.
The backdrop of feudal Japan is woven into this
story with brilliance and it gives an interesting
portayal of the customs and traditions of the time.
Sure, it's just a bit long, but well worth it.
Having read the book and watched the excessively
edited 2 hour movie version, this dvdset was something
I'd been anticipating for a long time.  Please enjoy
this wonderful story, courtesy of your friends at
SChiZO.
As a sidenote, the DVD contains a new 5.1 mix of the
soundtrack which I was most disappointed not to be
able to keep.  The stereo audiotrack used was a
downmix of the 5.1 track.
