Samurai Saga with Toshiro Mifune

I'm trying to find a copy of "Samurai Saga", starring Toshiro Mifune as a gift for a dojo mate. I've tried all the usual suspects with no success. It was made in 1959 with the title "Aru Kengo No Shogai" in Japan. I would prefer a DVD, but VHS would work too. This movie is essentially the Cyrano de Bergerac tale set in samurai times. Thanks in advance for any help.

Dear Joe -

Thanks for the effort, but it is out of stock there too. I did find a VHS copy and ordered it from the New York Film Annex. I'd never heard of this organization so we'll see what happens. It should arrive here in the next week or so.
