Title: Ran

Author:

Description: A masterly interpretation of Shakespeare’s King Lear. The director spent 10 years storyboarding every shot in the film, a fact borne out by the stunningly beautiful imagery and Kurosawa’s only Oscar nomination for Best Director. The story concerns an elderly lord’s abdication and his three sons – one loyal whom the father foolishly exiles, and two corrupt who will bring about his ruin.
