In this episode of They Shot Pictures, Sean and Seema are joined by our friend Lance to discuss Japanese master Akira Kurosawa. In the first instalment of this two-parter, we focus exclusively on his non-Samurai films. Given the vast amount of writing and scholarship available on Kurosawa, we chose to focus on three of his relatively underseen films. We focus our discussion around the films, No Regrets for Our Youth, The Idiot and Red Beard.
