Review of Ikiru (1952) by Richard Brody for New Yorker — 07 Apr 2016
Kurosawa achieves the piercing emotion and poetry of the Italian neorealists, but by opposite means: he doesn't make the camera disappear; instead... he deploys his camera so sharply and unerringly that it seems to take X-rays of the spirit.
