Along with Tokyo Stories and Godzilla , Rashomon is a great film who launched Japanese Cinema and begun a cult upon the New Wave of the rising sun nation.
But IMO Rashomon is truly more than just one cult classic, it´s truly a marvellous contribution to examination of the human condition, with so much groundbreaking filmmaking tools that still lives till this day, and we must know therefore that a big part of modern cinema wouldn´t even existed without this great masterpiece
With the intimacy of Japan forests and a few characters, this film moved mountains with his powerful message and all the interpretations of the truth, but like life itself there´s no absolute truth.
If you love cinema enough, you should watch this piece of art, and if you didn´t liked it, then try to watch the other true masterpiece of Sensei Kurosawa , Seven Samurai
Rashomon
(1950)
A Wonderful and Gritty tale about human condition by the Sensei Himself
