'''''Red Beard''''' (赤ひげ Akahige) is a 1965 film directed by [[Akira Kurosawa]], based on the short story collection ''Akahige shinryotan'' (赤ひげ診療譚) by Shūgorō Yamamoto. It stars [[Toshiro Mifune]] as Dr. Kyojō Niide, nicknamed "Red Beard".
 
The protagonist of the film is Dr. Yasumoto, recent graduate of the medical school at Nagasaki, and disappointed in love. He's even more disappointed when he learns that instead of the prestigious post with the shogunate he'd expected, Dr. Yasumoto is assigned to a public clinic that provides free care for the poor. At first, the arrogant young Yasumoto is determined to be as contrary as possible so that Red Beard will fire him.
