About This Movie

So, there's this fascinating piece called 'Kurosawa's Continuity,' from 2005. It's only 43 minutes, but it really digs into the visual language of Kurosawa through his own paintings and sketches related to 'Kagemusha.' The animation here isn’t flashy or over-the-top; rather, it feels more like a meditation. You’re kinda led through this atmospheric journey, where the pacing allows you to really absorb the art and the themes of duality and identity that Kurosawa often explored. It’s an intriguing blend of documentary and abstract storytelling. The way they’ve pieced together his sketches gives it a unique texture, like you’re peeking into his creative mind. Definitely a unique piece for fans of Kurosawa’s artistry.
