So I watched Akira Kurosawa's "High and Low" yesterday

I was floored. Kurosawa is a better Hitchcock than Hitchcock is. He knows how to get incredible performances out of his actors, and the script is a non stop journey of twists and turns that kept me engaged for the entirety of its runtime.

But what really blew me away was how Kurosawa manages to make even the most physically restrained scenes absolutely gorgeous to look at. I made a quick compilation of these moments, and I encourage any fans of Kurosawa to check this out. I'd rate it right up there with Seven Samurai and Yojimbo.
