Zitat:
Akira Kurosawa has been hailed as one of the greatest filmmakers by critics all over the world. This collection brings together five of his most profound masterpieces, exploring the complexities of life, and includes two previously unreleased titles - The Lower Depths and Dodes'ka-den.

IKIRU (aka Living)
Featuring a beautifully nuanced performance by Takashi Shimura as a bureaucrat diagnosed with stomach cancer, Ikiru is an intensely lyrical and moving film which explores the nature of existence and how we find meaning in our lives.
Japan /1952 /black and white /Japanese language with English subtitles /DVD9 /137 minutes /ratio 1.33:1

I LIVE IN FEAR (Ikimono no Kiroku)
Made at the height of the Cold War, with Hiroshima and Nagasaki still a recent memory, Toshiro Mifune delivers an outstanding performance as a wealthy foundry owner who decides to move his entire family to Brazil to escape the nuclear holocaust which he fears is imminent.
Japan /1955 /black and white /Japanese language with English subtitles /DVD5 /99 minutes /ratio 1.66:1

THE LOWER DEPTHS (Donzoko)
This Maxim Gorky adaptation, in which the inhabitants of a slum while away their time longing for escape or dreaming of a better life, is a brilliant exploration of the conflict between the comfort of illusion and bitter reality.
Japan /1957 /black and white /Japanese language with English subtitles /DVD9 /120 minutes /ratio 1.33:1

RED BEARD (Akahige)
The last and most ambitious of Kurosawa's collaborations with Toshiro Mifune, Red Beard chronicles the tumultuous friendship, in a nineteenth-century rural clinic, between an idle and socially ambitious intern (Yuzo Kayama) and the compassionate yet commanding doctor (Toshiro Mifune), and serves as a testament to the goodness of humanity.
Japan /1965 /black and white /Japanese language with English subtitles /DVD9 /172 minutes /ratio 2.35:1

DODES'KA-DEN (aka Clickety-clack) Akira Kurosawa's first film in colour follows a group of people living around a city dump and is by turns both tragic and transcendent. Made at a critical point in his life, Kurosawa poured himself into this film and negative reaction it garnered resulted in a suicide attempt.
Japan /1970 /colour /Japanese language with English subtitles /DVD9 /134 minutes /ratio 1.33:1
