Wiki.
The Barbarian and the Geisha (working titles The Townsend Harris Story and The Barbarian) is a 1958 American adventure film directed by John Huston and starring John Wayne. The film was shot primarily on location in Japan.
Townsend Harris is appointed the first Consul General to Japan. Upon his arrival, Harris discovers that the Japanese thoroughly mistrust all foreigners, despite a two-year-old treaty between Japan and the United States. Harris slowly earns the respect of the local governor and trust of the local townsfolk and is eventually granted an audience with Japan's military dictator, the Shōgun.
