All month Turner Classic Movies is showing a boatload of Kurasawa movies. A total of 26 films including pretty much all the ones you'd expect plus a few you wouldn't.
Sure, they're showing Seven Samuri and Yojimbo, which I've seen dozens of times, but any chance to watch Ikiru and Throne of Blood and Ran is welcomed around my house. And after driving me away with, "31 Days of Oscar," which amounted to 31 days of crap that I've already seen and really don't want to watch again, this is very welcome. Maybe we could get a Seijun Suzuki film retrospective some day.
