THE CHALLENGE
"He has trained every thought, every muscle, every nerve, for the moment of truth!"
Directed by John Frankenheimer
Rick, a down-and-out American boxer, is hired to transport a sword to Japan, unaware that the whole thing is a set up in a bitter blood-feud between two brothers, one who follows the traditional path of the samurai and the other a businessman.
