Kobayashi
These are just some rough notes on Kurosawa...
Can anyone tell me What is the year in which 'Ran' takes place?
>>62681301
Him
Kitano was very good.
>>62681301
That would be Kurosawa hands down. Living? I'm rather fond of Anno's live action work. Also get out of here Max Landis, we know it's you!

Seijun Suzuki wannabes.
>>62682818
Pretty good.
>>62683460
Probably the most overrated director who has ever lived.
Kitano is still alive and is still the best. Sion is good but I feel like his films lack a cohesive narrative. I can recall several scenes or shots of his in my head but not any significant plot or story points.
my fav is prob mizoguchi or kobayashi

Anno? I know right! The manga of Neon Genesis was better.
For me it is those three:
Masaki Kobayashi
Shohei Imamura
Kenji Mizoguchi
There are others I like, but those three were the best imo.

Great director. Awful writer though. The comparisons to Lucas aren't out of place.
Both created a landmark series. Half of what made each great was because of his team (Anno only cared about the robots). They both create their own studio years later for a reboot The both now had nobody to tell him that their ideas were shit.

i love ozu

Everyone does. You can not hate Ozu unless you want to be a contrarian edgelord.
>>62681301
I fucking love this movie. Say whatever you want about >>62683460 but at the end of the day his analysis is pretty spot-on.
