My second time watching this, and I was blown away yet again. Keeping aside the fact that Kurosawa is my all-time favorite director, here both him and Mifune tread into really unfamiliar territory of sophisticated values and bring out one of the best movies ever made. Mifune especially is nothing short of brilliance. A gem of a movie.

10/10.
I am so glad I am not alone in loving this one, after seeing all the brickbats it has been getting around these parts. Nice sentiments, Dante. I really love Martyrs a lot too. One of my favorite modern ones.
