In one scene, Toshiro Mifune is ordering a brand new car via telephone and is appalled when they say "New Yorker" and that "It must be an Imperial! No less!" Scene cracked me up. |

Actually, keeping in his usual style, this Kurosawa movie is a retelling of Shakespeare's Hamlet, set within the extremely capitalist post-war Japan during the economic boom. Not very much action but its a good watch nonetheless. |
