Akira Kurosawa's films







Today I decided to post some informations about films directed by Akira Kurosawa. The reason is simple: he is one of the most important film directors ever!
His films are very beautiful, they tend to show how art can inspire our life (specially painting). They are all about psychology, philosophy and, of course, history (of Japan).
Other point is the discussion about sovereignty and ambition in Japan.

The list of films are below:

The seven samurai (his most emblematic film)

Ran
Dreams

Rhapsody in August

Kagemusha

Dersu Uzala


As always, I am posting a link to an youtube video. It is a part of the film Dreams: Kurosawa is trying to show a relation between Sigmund Freud, Van Gogh and you...
