Rashomon

Year: 1950

Grade: A

Country: Japan

Director: Kurosawa

Review

fantastic film, but you probably already know that by now. great great great camera movement, great storytelling, and great direction – the way he structured the whole story, the settings he chose, the music he used, the framing of the shots…everything was purposeful and effective. kurosawa can really tell a story without using words. there’s plenty to say about this movie, but it’s probably already been said more eloquently elsewhere so i won’t be redundant. i will note that he music reminds me a lot of prokofiev’s (peter and the wolf) work. the ending gave me more faith in the human spirit and i needed that.
