Ambrose Video, 2006
Almost ashamed to watch it this many times
This is a spectacular series to see in hd, and the subject matter is often mind blowing. I would highly recommend this to anyone remotely interested in how we as a species came to be and/or in the really incredible history of this planet.

Makes one Hungry
Besides a few major films created by such luminaries as Kurosawa Akira Kagemusha (1980) and Ran (1985) and a small handful of other films, the 1980s, although Japan's economy was booming, was a major dry spell for the Japanese film industry. Directors such as Oshima ...

A Simple Art
The story of Rikyu will unviel itself for you when you watch this movie. It is very similar to the Cha no yu itself, very simple and austere. This movie only cover a certain part of Rikyu's life, so all you folks that are "historians" don't be disapointed if the latter ...

Some people Have Greatness Thrust Upon Them
Kagamusha is such a physically beautifully film, it's that much more of a shame that the narrative isn't more powerful. In only his third color feature, Kurosawa goes all the way in presenting scene after scene in beautiful vibrant colors that leap off the screen. ...

Fox Lorber, 1999
A wry commentary on the loss of meaning in traditions
There are times when death has been appropriate and hilarious material for a comedy. The juxtaposition of the seriousness of a funeral with wacky hijinks and hootenannies makes for funny stuff. But don't expect to find any of that in Itami's social commentary, "The ...
