Happy birthday, Akira Kurosawa!

Legendary film director Akira Kurosawa was born on March 23, 1910 and went on to create a deeply influential body of cinematic work before his passing on September 6, 1998. Some of my favorite works of his include Dreams, Rashomon, Kagemusha, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood, the Hidden Fortress, and The Seven Samurai. Be sure to watch one of them today. Each film is a tremendous exploration of human character and detail.
