In 2017, film history researcher Honchi Akihiko discovered 35 feet and 11 frames of undiscovered film, including new footage. It includes scenes of the masseur who had defeated the samurai making a mocking face, and the samurai hiding in the shade of a tree while trying to kill the courier. (Source: Wikipedia)
