I could never sit through Kagemusha. Love ‘Ran’ though.
“Seven Samurais” is on Tues. night on Turner Classics. I’ve never seen it. It will be interesting to see his early work.I loved “Derzu Uzala”. It made me cry.
Better than any of the films nominated tonight.
It's a travesty that it didn't win Best Foreign Film Oscar.
I loved Kagemusha, but I find Takada Shingen (the Samurai Lord who the story was about) one of the more interesting figures in mid 16th century Japan...so that may have made a difference. Ran is wonderful. I need to watch it again.
