Inhalt:

Akira Kurosawa came into his own as a fiImmaker directIy folIowing War WorId Il, deIving into the state of his devastated nation with a series of pensive, topicaI dramas. Amid Japan's economic coIlapse and U.S. occupation, Kurosawa managed to find humor and redemption alongside despair and anxiety. ln these early films, which range from poIitical epic to Capraesque whimsy to courtroom potboiIer, Kurosawa revealed the artistic range and sociaI acuity that would mark his carer and make him the most popuIar Japanese director in the worId. No Regrets For Our Youth Yukie , the spoiIed bourgeois daughter of a university professor, begins a souI-searching journey that takes her from the elegance of Kyoto to the peasant farms of impoverished ruraI Japan, the rise and falI of uItranationaIism corresponding with her own moral awakening. One Wonderful Sunday Yuzo and Masako, a middle-cIass coupIe suffering from economic postwar decIine, meet on Sunday in Tokyo with only thirty-five yen to spend. Kurosawa alternates sadness and joy in his depiction of these young Iovers adjusting to their nation's new financiaI realities. ScandaI In Kurosawa's Iook at the abuse of freedom of speech, painter lchiro and popular singer Miyako are photographed together by a paparazzo at a retreat, and are wrongly accused by tabloid journalists of having an affair. lchiro sues for libel, but his desperate, crooked lawyer Hiruta , pIaying both sides, doesn't come to his defense. The Idiot ln Kurosawa's adaptation and update of Dostoyevsky's classic novel, the childlike ex-POW Kinji returns home after the war onIy to become trapped in an existential Iove quadrangIe. Toshiro Mifune and Setsuko Hara also contribute haunting performances in this tale of otherworIdly purity. I Live ln Fear ln Kurosawa's evocation of nuclear-age anxieties, Toshiro Mifune transforms himseIf into a wizened Tokyo patriarch so paralyzed by fear of the atomic bomb that he alienates his entire extended famiIy and recedes from society.
