Holy crap, take a look at these amazing illustrations posted over at eL gAto nEgro... I absolutely adore Akira Kurosawa, and these do the man and his films very proud.
I once went to a screening of Throne of Blood after having gone a day or two without sleeping, and -try as I might- could not stay awake for the film. I would drift in and out of consciousness, weaving together some form of plot from the bits I was seeing. Suffice it to say, when I finally sat and watched the movie well-rested it was a drastically different experience.
Yojimbo! The great master's finest work? Possibly. Then again, there's also Seven Samurai... And High and Low. Also, Throne of Blood. Or maybe it's Rashomon. (I tend to think that whichever of his movies I'm watching is the best.)(Of course, the images belong to the artist.)
