I saw my first Kurosawa film the night before last. Chris came over and we watched "Ran," which is basically a Japanese adaptation of King Lear. It was pretty good.

Tomorrow will be summer soltice. I'd like to get outside and enjoy the daylight, but it will be raining all day. :( Still, I'm glad it's the weekend already.

Thanks for the words, Rai; I'm still working on them.

Ran is so awesome.
That is all.

No rush -- I realise the moment had passed by the time I'd suggested them. :) And I think you might enjoy other Kurosawa movies. I'm not as familiar with his work as I'd like to be, but The Seven Samurai and Yojimbo are not only very well-crafted, but excellent period pieces, too.
