I'm not a huge fan of the story (ie Shakespeare's macbeth), the color, cinematography, emotion, and artistry are truly special.. if it is on story, i prefer his movie seppaku

This is one of my top-five. Why? Certainly for the imagery (that's what the movies are about, if you ask me), more than the story (King Lear). The battle scene(s) are simply the best movie scenes ever done. Period.

Ran is Kurosawa's Othello, his last masterpiece and his final statement as an artist. It is a remarkably compelling and powerful epic that pulls you in and doesn't let you go until you have been completely drained of all emotion and hope for humanity. It is a transposition of Shakespeare's King Lear, set in feudal Japan: An elderly lord abdicates to his three sons. One son is bold enough to warn the lord of his rash decision and is banished for his disloyalty. The other two sons vie for power and scheme against their father, driving the old man insane.

Kurosawa's epic and often violent take on Shakespeare's "King Lear" is one of those films that sticks itself within the crevices of your mind and nestles itself in for the long haul. Filled with visionary images and composing a larger-than-life plot, Kurosawa demonstrates that even in his final stage of life (with deteriorating eyesight), he can still create a film that astonishes his audiences. Set in feudal Japan, a powerful Lord is haunted by visions of his impending future and decides to divide his kingdom among his three sons. While his offer is initially met with honor and promises of dedication, greed, jealousy and power eventually corrupt the sons, leading to a blood-soaked conclusion. Kurosawa frames most of the film in static long-shots, but through incredible editing there emerges a pace and flow to the visuals that I have rarely seen matched by any other director. Do yourself a favor and see this film.
