“I love Kurosawa, although I don’t like his Throne of Blood, for example. I think he copied Shakespeare’s plot in a superficial manner and transferred it to Japanese history, without really succeeding. Shakespeare’s Macbeth is much more profound, both in the character of its protagonist and in the tragedy that penetrates the action. I love The Seven Samurai and Sanjuro. Remarkable pictures. Remarkable director. One of the best in the world, what can I say.” -Andrei Tarkovsky

tarkovsky's takes are amazing because while he's wrong about 2001, he hated it so much that it pushed him to make Solaris which is its own classic 😭 truly one of the most memorable directors of all time

For as crazy as some of Tarkovsky’s takes are, I feel he’s on the money with this one. Kurosawa is an amazing filmmaker and all of his films are exceptionally technically well done, but his adaptations of Shakespeare felt… off. They definitely didn’t capture the story as well as the original (yes, even Ran).
