I'm one of the few who didn't like Roshomon. The other two are top notch.

Red Beard would be #4 for me.

reply

[–] Kawada_Kira (7282) 2 years ago

Difficult choice.

Seven Samurai (1954)
No Regrets for Our Youth (1946)
High and Low (1963)

There's a lot more of his movies that I love but I think those three edge out the rest.

reply

[–] samoanjoes (52959) 2 years ago

I thought I knew every Kurosawa movie, but I've never heard of "No Regrets for Our Youth".

reply

[–] Kawada_Kira (7282) 2 years ago

It's a very underappreciated one.

My favorites:

SS
Yojimbo
Red Beard

reply

[–] samoanjoes (52959) 2 years ago

I've always felt that Red Beard is the one film most Kurosawa fans forget about. Glad to see it on a few people's lists here.

reply

[–] AnubisRaydeen (7897) 2 years ago

Probably about half of his stuff still unseen by me. Some of his domestic settings confuse my western eye.

reply

[–] Boromir (9712) 2 years ago

It is hard to pick only 3

anyway

Rashômon (1950)
High and Low (1963)
The Hidden Fortress (1958)

reply

[–] samoanjoes (52959) 2 years ago

Yeah, he's got maybe 5 amazing films and a lot of good ones.

[–] ducksoup (3933) 2 years ago

I don't know three best, there's still a lot of his stuff I haven't seen. Still, I really liked these:

Drunken Angel (1948)
Stray Dog (1949)
Yojimbo (1961)

reply

[–] samoanjoes (52959) 2 years ago

The first two are more obscure Kurosawa films.
