Tap dance number

I'm taking hip hop tap again this summer, yay! And this is one of the coolest tap numbers I've seen...

What's the name of the movie this clip is from? I'd love to see it. :)

I looked that up and it's a Japanese movie called Zatoichi. From IMDB: The end dance sequence is a tribute to many of the popular Japanese films, in which the Hollywood-style happy ending was followed by a sudden "burst into song". He wanted to attempt this, but in a different type of way. Kitano combined traditional Kabuki theatre clog-dancing with "the latest African-American tap style".
