I honestly love Kurosawa’s work, thank you for the great review.

Re: "Rashomon" review by Zarban (hidden spoilers)

I too am a big fan of Kurosawa, but confess that I'm not that familar with Rashomon having seen it only a couple of times (possibly to do with losing my VHS tape) many years ago. I remember liking it, but it didn't have that same wow factor as Yojimbo and Seven Samurai.

It's a great review and I'd like to watch it again now since I'll likely derive much more enjoyment from it, thanks.

That's the cover of the new Criterion Blu-Ray too. I agree, it's excellent.

It makes the movie look like a science fiction story, WHICH WOULD BE AWESOME.

Surely someone's done a sci-fi version of Rashomon. Maybe as a Simpsons episode or something.
