Akira Kurosawa

Hello everyone todays painting is one one my favorite directors of all time his name was Akira Kurosawa born March 23, 1910 – Died September 6, 1998,After watching the movie the Seven Samurai it was one of the films that helped me acquire a taste for the films of Akira Kurosawa. but my favorite Kurosawa film though is Throne of Blood. absolute masterpiece,watched it many times and will watch it many more times,Always thought Yojimbo was extremely underrated,Very few other film makers understood and explored the human condition like Kurosawa .Films today are just pompous, overbearing, vehicles for "movie stars" or CGI, or gutter filth genre trash. Some are enjoyable sure, but try coming up with a list of films made since 1980 that you watch more than two or three times?? In a career that spanned 57 years, Kurosawa directed 30 films.
.Kurosawa entered the Japanese film industry in 1936, following a brief, unsuccessful career as a painter. After years of working on numerous films as an assistant director and scriptwriter, he made his debut as a director during the Second World War with the popular action film Sanshiro Sugata (a.k.a. Judo Saga, 1943). watch the small you tube clip for more information of this great artist. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AhSw56iSWQ&feature=related
