Rashomon

I’ve tried 3 times, and still have never finished it. It’s slow, tedious (incredibly long and dull scenes that repeat over and over)

It’s one of few old movies Ive watched that truly shows its age. I’m not dumb enough to say “you have to watch it like youre in the 1940’s”

The influence this film had on other works and cinema in general is insane. Brilliant.
Will probably change it to love later.

Akira Kurosawa I love you thank you for your service

crazy to think this was five years after world war 2 ended. makes the film's dark setting that much more visceral.

what stood out to me the most from this film was its phenomenal cinematography and composition, especially the framing. overall though, the story offers some very nice messages and lessons. akira kurosawa is truly the beethoven of cinema

As of now it’s a like. I can see the influence it had on other media following it, but half the characters were insufferable. Either way it had me wanting to know more of the story and keep watching
