Akira Kurosawa and Intertextual Cinema (Paperback)

In "Akira Kurosawa and Intertextual Cinema," James Goodwin draws on contemporary theoretical and critical approaches to explore the Japanese director's use of a variety of texts to create films that are uniquely intertextual and intercultural. Surveying all of Kurosawa's films and examining six films in depth-- "The Idiot," "The Lower Depths," "Rashomon," "Ikiru," "Throne of Blood," and "Ran"--Goodwin finds in Kurosawa's themes and techniques the capacity to restructure perceptions of Western and Japanese cultures and to establish new meanings in each.
