There's also "Ran" which was based on King Lear. NO ONE adapted Shakespeare into a Japanese context better than Kurosawa. smile


Ah thanks PM, I knew there was another Shakespeare-based film, but couldn't think of the title!



You're welcome. I'm always happy when I get to discuss anything related to Akira Kurosawa. smile
