The Hidden Blade (隠し剣 鬼の爪, Kakushi ken: Oni no tsume, literally "Hidden Blade: Oni's Claw") is a 2004 film, set in 1860s Japan, directed by Yoji Yamada. The plot revolves around several samurai during a time of change in the ruling and class structures of Japan. The film was written by Yamada with Yoshitaka Asama and, like its predecessor The Twilight Samurai, based on a short story by Shūhei Fujisawa. The soundtrack is an original composition by Isao Tomita.
The film takes place in Japan in the 1860s, a time of cultural assimilation. Two samurai, Munezo Katagiri (Masatoshi Nagase) and Samon Shimada (Hidetaka Yoshioka), bid farewell to their friend, Yaichiro Hazama (Yukiyoshi Ozawa), who is to serve in Edo (present-day Tokyo) under the shogunate of that region. Though the position is desirable, Katagiri voices his concern that a man of Yaichiro’s character is likely to run into trouble. His doubts are assured when the married Yaichiro expresses an intention to indulge in Edo’s sensual pleasures while stationed there.

Primeira parte de uma trilogia temática, O SAMURAI DO ENTARDECER foi dirigido por Yoji Yamada e lançado em 2002. Com enfoque em um samurai pobre levando a vida com dificuldade, em meio a um país que enfrentava sua transição histórica, a obra impressiona pelo seu conteúdo dramático. Sem glorificar a imagem destes guerreiros em lutas estilizadas, é um retrato realista e profundamente humano de pessoas enfrentando circunstâncias comuns à vida.
