Akira Kurosawa
“Although human beings are incapable of talking about themselves with total honesty, it is much harder to avoid the truth while pretending to be other people. They often reveal much about themselves in a very straightforward way. I am certain that I did. There is nothing that says more about its creator than the work itself.”
- Akira Kurosawa
I should be able here to talk the most, with knowledge and in depth. But my adoration of his talent is making me silent. Just, please, watch all of his movies. All of them. I will list most of them here.
He is a genius.
Every single frame of his work is an art in itself.
The best storyteller among the filmmakers and the best painter’s eye among them, too.
His camera is dancing through the places he created with so much love and bravery and wisdom;
joy, humor and pain follow it, too. Life.
Welcome Mr. Kurosawa, the master of film art.
"Most directors have one masterpiece by which they are known, or possibly two. Kurosawa has at least eight or nine."
-Francis Ford Coppola
