When you see a Kurosawa film, you realize so many modern movie directors don't know how to stage drama.

this film is so criminally underrated it hurts

Kurosawa's most underrated film. Seven Samurai might be his most famous and influential, but this is a hidden gem. Even better film.

Aoki's positioning in this movie is so genius, he occupies the same space on screen that he occupies in Gondo's mind. He is always there, in a position that obviously places him in the background, but also in a space that our eyes can't help but continuously be drawn to. We can't help but keep glancing at him to see his reactions, even as he is simply standing there helpless for a chunk of the movie, he is still there, a visual representation of the human stakes of the story. It is the same for Gondo, Aoki's presence and grief is always hovering over him, never quite out of sight as he attempts to make a single decision that will determine his future. This movie, and Kurosawa in general, does such an incredible job at representing these things visually in a way that looks so flawless and natural

Kurosawa is most known as the “samurai guy” to most people, but some of his best works are in the crime drama genre, like this film, the Bad Sleep Well, and Stray Dog. Edit: and Drunken Angel

I'm not sure which is more incredible- Kurosawa's skill or the quality of the analysis by this channel; from one movie nerd to another: thank you

I read it some where that Kurusawa shots his films in a way that the editors rarely have to do too much edit. Amazing.

The first twenty minutes of High and Low is almost an object lesson in how to direct a set piece. No flashy cutting, no off beat camera angles, no camera on dolly or steadicam. Kuroasawa does this by grouping and actor movement. When you see this on the widescreen, and if you understand cinema, its a real treat for the eye. Not to say the remarkable acting. Toshiro Mifune was one of the finest actors to ever grace the screen.

High and Low is exemplary in the way Kurosawa moves his characters around in the high rise. If you're watching it even as a lay observer you know something special is going on. But this youtube essay does an amazing job of breaking down why it's so great. Bravo!

Akira Kurosawa is one of my favorite filmmakers. Always a joy to see videos on his work.

This movie is mindblowing in details. The telephone scene at the beginning, I think it is almost 10 minutes long, captured in one take. Amazing work by all actors, especially Toshiro Mifune and Tatsuya Nakadai.
High and Low is one of my favorite Kurosawa films and, yes, it is probably the most underrated he's ever made. I guess the reason is it's set in then modern 60's Japan era and people mostly associate Kurosawa with samurai themes. Another modern film - The Bad Sleep Well, which is less entertaining than High and Low, is full of legendary shots and still it goes unmentioned. For me it is a directing masterpiece.
Thanks for this video, I'm definitely watching this film again these days, haven't seen it in almost a decade.

With the last example, I feel too many modern directors would have been afraid of the audience's attention span, or try to over-stylise, and resort to a multitude of short closeups and awkward angles. Very nice video, Cinefix at its best!!

Can you turn this in to some sort of Kurosawa series? Please!!! Maybe videos on performance, editing, scripting, composition, anything! Awesome video btw

I have not watched enough Kurosawa

Amazing performances from Toshiro Mifune and Tatsuya Nakadai!

Kurosawa, one of those directors who doesn't even need an editor...badass.

i don't know much about filmmaking, i knew blocking was a thing but i never knew how much meaning you can infer just through blocking. things like this are very inspiring and humbling

'High and Low' is such an under-rated Kurosawa movie. Such a tight script and so engrossing. I watched it without any breaks!

The entire first 1 hour of High and Low (1963) is a masterclass in staging,blocking,drama,tension on the whole great storytelling.

Please more of this. The "Brilliant Moments" episodes that focus solely on one piece of the craft are my absolute favorite. It fills the hole that Every Frame a Painting left.
