    Just as many American studio-era directors found acclaim abroad that was denied them in their home country by 1980 Akira Kurosawa's reputation outside Japan exceeded his esteem at home. As uncompromising as ever he found considerable difficulty securing backing for his ambitious projects. Unsure he would be able to film it the director an aspiring artist before he entered filmmaking converted Kagemusha into a series of paintings and it was partly on the basis of these that he won the financial support of ...

    After Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo was released in 1961, the samurai film would never be the same. It's difficult for latter-day Western audiences to fully appreciate just how revolutionary Kurosawa's film was in its time; it had the same kind of popular impact that Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction had 33 years later, which is to say, it completely revolutionized its genre, and its influence continues to this day. With an emphasis on dark, delicious comedy, Kurosawa deliberately set out to overturn the conventions ...

    Rashomon (Criterion Collection) by Akira Kurosawa

It opens with a priest a woodcutter and a peasant taking refuge from a downpour beneath a ruined gate in 12th-century Japan. The priest and the woodcutter each looking stricken discuss the trial of a notorious bandit for rape and murder. As the retelling of the trial unfolds the participants in the crime -- the bandit (Toshiro Mifune) the rape victim (Machiko Kyo) and the murdered man (Masayuki Mori) -- tell their plausible though ...

    Throne of Blood (Criterion Collection) by Akira Kurosawa
    Macbeth is reimagined as a samurai in feudal Japan in director Akira Kurosawa's classic adaptation of the Shakespearean tragedy. Familiar with Orson Welles's more faithful adaptation Kurosawa chose to place a more personal stamp on his version by translating the events and characters to historical Japan. The equivalent of the tragic Scottish lord is Taketoki Washizu (Toshiro Mifune) a valiant warrior whose life is transformed by an encounter with a ghostly female spirit. The spirit offers several predictions ...

    Ran is Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa's reinterpretation of William Shakespeare's King Lear. The Lear counterpart is an elderly 16th-century warlord (Tatsuya Nakadai) who announces that he's about to divide his kingdom equally among his three sons. In his dotage he falls prey to the false flattery of his treacherous sons (Akira Terao and Jinpachi Nezu) while banishing his youngest son (Daisuke Ryu) the only member of the family who loves him enough to tell him the unvarnished truth. Thanks to his foolish ...

    Thanks to perhaps the most indelible character in Akira Kurosawa's oeuvre Yojimbo surpassed even Seven Samurai in popularity when it was released. The masterless samurai Sanjuro who slyly manipulates two warring clans to his own advantage in a small dusty village was so entertainingly embodied by the brilliant Toshiro Mifune that it was only a matter of time before he returned in a sequel. Made just one year later Sanjuro matches Yojimbo's storytelling dexterity yet adds a layer of world-weary pragmatism that ...
