Review of High and Low (1933) by Danny D — 15 Mar 2011
My second viewing was even better than the first. I think this may be one of the most well crafted, well written, well shot films in history. the script is flawless and complex, the acting astounding, and then cinematography and art direction as masterfully planned out as a film can get.
not as well revered for a kurosawa film as seven samurai, yojimbo, or rashomon, but just as good. particularly the scene in the police station during the briefing and the final scene, as well as the stunning and haunting junky alley scene, the film has a quality that no other film of this genre does.
possibly the best crime drama ever made.
