Seven Samurai by Akira Kurosawa
Presents three early works from the Japanese film maker Akira Kurosawa. In "The Seven Samurai" (1954) the inhabitants of a small Japanese village employ a band of roaming Samurai to defend them. This film was eventually used as a model for "The Magnificent Seven". The other screenplays featured include "Ikiru" (1952) which tells the painful and intimate story of a Japanese civil servant's coming to terms with old age and death. "Throne of Blood" (1957), based on Shakespeare's "Macbeth", tells of a Samurai who is encouraged to kill his lord. The texts featured are based on the author's own shooting scripts and this book includes a critical introduction to each script.
Akira Kurosawa was born in 1910, to an old samurai family. He received many awards for his work including the 1980 Grand Prize at Cannes for Kagemusha. Kurosawa died in 1998.
