This is meant to complement my quip from another film director John Ford on my other blog "The Daily Vampire."
Both quotes were supposed to run yesterday, which was Pearl Harbor Day, but perhaps it is just as well that I am posting them today.
Akira Kurosawa is considered by many to be Japan's best film director of all time though Ozu and Oshima* fans might dispute that!:
"Japan does not understand very well that one of its proudest cultural achievements is in film."
*- We believe Nagisha Oshima is the only one of these three Japanese directors mentioned here to still be alive.
