Review of Ikiru (1952) by Daniel P — 04 May 2008
Reminds me of "It's a Wonderful Life," and strikingly American for a Japanese film made in 1952! Demonstrates Kurasawa's total mastery of Hollywood techniques, and his compassion for his characters.
Not my favorite of his films, but certainly wonderful.
