Wikipedia entry begins ...
Mansaku Itami ($B0KC0K|:n(B; real name Yoshitoyo Ikeuchi $BCSFb5AK-(B 1900-1946) 
was a Japanese film director,
 originally from Matsuyama, Ehime. His samurai 
movies diverged from the norm in that they were not heroic epics of the 
sort which had by that time become formulaic, but rather satires 
that used the established symbols and iconography of the samurai culture
 to comment on both historical and modern society.
