Sanguinia posted:I know Last Samurai was based on a specific incident in which a pair of French soldiers aligned themselves with the Shogunate forces during the wars leading up to the Meiji Restoration. The project was a brainchild of a New Zealander named Vincent Ward and spent a lot of years being developed and workshopped before it finally got made. Inspiration from Shogun could have easily come into the mix at any time Last Samurai was, not surprisingly, based on a whole lot of things. I think the villainous American guy was based on an American officer who was invited to teach the Japanese soldiers artillery drills and ended up getting kicked out of the country because it turns out that he was just evangelizing the whole time instead of doing his job.
