Description:

Stan Brakhage answers questions about Akira Kurosawa's 'Seven Samurai.' He discusses the music in Kurosawa's films. Brakhage argues Kurosawa is an artist because of his attention to detail and "rigidity of composition." He explains how Kurosawa was influenced by Western concepts, such as Romanticism, and continues into a discussion about how Romanticism often depicts sex and death. Brakhage compares Kurosawa to Sergei Eisenstein. He describes the "compositional imbalance" seen in Hollywood films and compares it to Kurosawa's "balanced" technique. To explain this, Brakhage describes vanishing points in film. Continnued on 'Stan Brakhage on Akira Kurosawa - Part 2.'
