A Must See for Film Enthusiasts
From a talented film maker comes a very respectable and concise documentary on one of the "Masters." In 50 minutes, Cox is able to paint a beautiful portrait of this Master's career and family life, and his body of work. While the length of the documentary is constrained, it still compels the average moviegoer to see all of Kurosawa's films. After all, that is the way it should be - that the viewer do the work. But Cox's documentary provides great motivation to do so. And as an aside, it is extremely interesting to hear some inside stories from the people who worked with Kurosawa. The Last Emperor is a great and important achievement. One would hope for another documentary by the people at Exterminating Angel.
