>> Hi,
>> If Ito Daisuke is a good source, then so is Makino Masahiro.  Although some
>> of
>> his films are still available, he made very many remakes in the 50's and
>> 60's.  Check out, if you can find it, the Shimizu Jirocho sangoku shi series
>> from 1953-54 for different kinds of crowd scenes, not just fight scenes.
>> Other suggestions:  Mizoguchi's Ugetsu monogatari for the 16th c. market
>> scene, Saikaku ichidai onna for several large scale "crowd" scenes.
>> In general, you are going to have a lot more luck with period films than with
>> contemporary films.
>> Cheers,
