Ikiru (1952)
Akira Kurosawa, Dir.

One of Kurosawa’s peaks in his art. Disturbing, honest, remarkable.

I am doing well - Thanks, Sara. I appreciate your stopping by.
such an amazing movie, but you know how i feel about many a kurosawa film.
now, have you seen either of kon ichikawa's wwii films?
The Burmese Harp is a powerful work. I really like Ichikawa' approach to story in that film. I do like Fires on the Plain, as well, but Harp is my preference.
