About the event
“One of the best detective thrillers ever filmed.” – Edward Thompson, The New York Times
HIGH AND LOW, (1963, Directed by Akira Kurosawa, Starring Toshirō Mifune, Tatsuya Nakadai, Kyōko Kagawa, Tsutomu Yamazaki, 143 mins).
In 1963, one of the greatest Police Procedural films ever made was released – not in the United States or Britain, but Japan! Akira Kurosawa, legendary director of such historic Japanese epics like Rashomon (1950), Seven Samari (1954) and Yojimbo (1961), channeled the full power of his visionary and exacting talent into a modern and taught crime thriller called High and Low. Without one wasted shot or beat, Kurosawa keeps you on the edge of your seat for the entire 142 minute runtime as a kidnapping plot to ransom a wealthy executive of a shoe company goes badly awry.
Kurosawa’s formal genius and rare humanism are on full display in this white-knuckle thriller— So many moments in…
