Throne of Blood

My fourth Kurosawa film and it's just as good as the rest of them! There still seems to be a bit of issue with the audio but that's really minor. I like this story a lot and although I have a few nit picks, this is a legendary film all the same!

I got to watch this again with a friend today. I picked up the Criterion DVD of this and it's amazing! It truly looks fantastic! The blacks and the white blend together and the picture quality is better then some films coming out today! The story and take on Macbeth is fascinating to watch and almost every aspect of this is perfect. I say almost because there's a couple scenes I feel could have been tightened up! I don't think any of the pacing was affected badly though and I was never bored. My friend was beyond impressed with this film and enjoyed it thoroughly! I recommend this one as always!
