What Stands Out
Product Details
- One of the greatest achievements by Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai), Ikiru presents the director at his most compassionate-affirming life through an exploration of death. Takashi Shimura (Rashomon) beautifully portrays Kanji Watanabe, an aging bureaucrat with stomach cancer who is impelled to find meaning in his final days. Presented in a radically conceived two-part structure and shot with a perceptive, humanistic clarity of vision, Ikiru is a multifaceted look at what it means to be alive.
