A truly powerful film that is a glowing testament of why I love cinema as an art form.

Did this guy ever even step foot in Mexico? The movie treated these social issues like novelty, relying on surface level identity politics as “conflicts” that…

I swear this mf Kurosawa don’t miss, the best movie I’ve seen so far from him. A kidnapping story that will keep you guessing till the final scene
