"Ran"
1985
Directed by Akira Kurosawa
Kurosawa's
masterpiece is a decade-in-the-making version of King Lear that
brilliantly blends Japanese history with
Shakespeare's themes. A triumphant film about ruthless ambition, evil
plots and "Chaos"--the meaning of the title in Japanese.
Japanese with English subtitles. VHS letterboxed. 160 minutes.
