Set pieces

In some of these old Japanese movies, it's kind of obvious they were in a hurry, or way over budget.  In others, it looks like they had all the time in the world, and made good use of it.  I have no idea what was going on, but in Zatoichi the Fugitive (1963) cinematographer Chishi Makiura earned his pay.  Here are a few shots from the film:
