Review of Red Beard (1965) by Arthurjoseph C — 29 Jan 2008
To me, this is Kurosawa at his best. His humanism shines out in this film that follows the transformation of an arrogant young medicine graduate into a compassionate healer.
Picture perfect compositions and brilliant staging and camera work makes this film a finely crafted masterpiece. Especially noteworthy is the long-take scene of the encounter between the Mantis and Yasumoto.
