Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon

Reviewed on 03/20/08       Plays: 32

The original Vantage Point. Akira Kurosawa's masterful direction and storytelling puts the viewer in charge of the truth. The editing of this film plays a huge part in the outcome. Four people, four different points of view, one story - one truth. Who is lying? Is the camera lying to us? This is great introductory Kurosawa - watch this, then watch the rest!!

Summary
This 1950 film by Akira Kurosawa is more than a classic: it's a cinematic archetype that has served as a template for many a film since. (Its most direct influence was on a Western remake, The Outrage , starring Paul Newman and directed by Martin Ritt.) In essence, the facts surrounding a rape and murder are told from four different and contradictory points of view, suggesting the nature of truth is something less than absolute. The cast, headed by Kurosawa's favorite actor, Toshiro Mifune, is superb. --Tom Keogh
