Kurasowa is a film making genius. What he accomplished in terms of sound, movement, editing etc, most directors can't get through even now. There are what we call 'western-cowboy movies', and then there's Yojimbo. With this film lies the beginning of 'the man with no name' films which marks an era and actors like Clint Eastwood and directors like Sergeo Leone. There were scenes in this movie which will outsmart any 'mass' scenes of the present. There were funny moments too, in the film. I am absolutely in love with the craft of Kurasowa. I really should try and develop a script, make a movie, even if it's a short one. Kurasowa, the great one, do bless me!
