Born on March 23, 1910, we celebrate Kurosawa's birthday by revisiting some of his classic films.
Arguably the best-known Japanese director in cinema history, Akira Kurosawa helmed influential films such as The Seven Samurai, Rashomon, The Hidden Fortress, Yojimbo, and his retelling of King Lear; Ran.
Directed by Vittorio de Sica
Family Drama, Melodrama - Rated NR - 85 Minutes - 1942
One of Vittorio DeSica's finest and most overlooked movies is this heart-wrenching neorealist drama about a little boy whose life is systematically destroyed by his thoughtless, self-centered mother. It's fierce, acutely-observed, and emotionally uncompromising.
