Description: Akira Kurosawa's Dreams (Criterion Collection) [New Blu-ray] Title: Akira Kurosawa's Dreams (Criterion Collection) Format: Blu-ray Label: Criterion Collection Genre: Foreign-Japanese, Drama UPC: 715515188715 Release Date: 2016 Akira Kurosawa's Dreams (Criterion Collection)[Blu-ray]Special Edition Unfolding in a series of mythic vignettes, this late work by Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai, Ran) brings eight of the beloved director s own nighttime visions, informed by tales from Japanese folklore, to cinematic life. In a visually sumptuous journey through the master s unconscious, tales of childlike wonder give way to apocalyptic visions: a young boy stumbles on a fox wedding in a forest; a soldier confronts the ghosts of the war dead; a power-plant meltdown smothers a seaside landscape in radioactive fumes. Interspersed with reflections on the redemptive power of art, including a richly textured tribute to Vincent van Gogh (played by Martin Scorsese), Akira Kurosawa s Dreams is both a showcase for its maker s imagination at its most unbridled and a deeply personal lament for a world at the mercy of human ignorance.BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew, restored 4K digital transfer, supervised by cinematographer Masaharu Ueda, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackNew audio commentary featuring film scholar Stephen PrinceMaking of Dreams (1990), a 150-minute documentary shot on-set and directed by Nobuhiko ObayashiNew interview with assistant director Takashi KoizumiNew interview with production manager Teruyo NogamiKurosawa s Way (2011), a fifty-minute documentary by director Akira Kurosawa s longtime translator Catherine Cadou, featuring interviews with filmmakers Theodoros Angelopoulos, Bernardo Bertolucci, Clint Eastwood, Alejandro G.
