Hello everyone ! Making video about beautiful cinematography is really a full time passion. As you probably know, I can't monetize my videos because the content isn't mine.

It is not so easy as you think underground man. Those who HIGHLIGHT beauty are very important also - which is why TEACHERS are so important. They have the sensibility to MAKE CONNECTIONS and offer their discoveries in a COHERENT WAY. A work of art without someone to indicate that it EXISTS - dies!!! The creative process and the exposition of all art in ANY form must be seen to live. Not everything is "original" - but the appreciation of it - and the particular way it is shown IS original. The person who put this together did a great job!
The channel named " Every Frame a Painting" has a great video essay about Kurasowa. Check it out. Personally,I think it's one of the best video essays on UA-cam
This has been one of my most anticipated videos ever, and it never disappoints. The fact you were able to compress such a extensive director known for consistently creating some of the most beautiful films into 3 minutes of storytelling, is what I respect from editor like you.
I was fortunate to have a Kurosawa class during my film studies in college. It totally opened my eyes to the artistry. He was an absolute master and influence to this day.
The films of Akira Kurosawa fascinate me because they’re all so different in tone and genre but they all ask the same questions like „What is honor?“, „What does it mean to be mortal?“, „What are we fighting for in this endless battle called life?“ and I think that’s beautiful
@@aliakhtar_0807 I definitly recommend watching them chronologically starting from stray dog, this is where Akira's style becomes visible. There are some films in between not necessary a must watch in your first run that maybe you should watch them if you find yourself awed by Akira's style.

QUESTO E IL VIAGGIO ALLA MAGIA DI CREATORI COME AKIRA KUROSAVA ❤
Thank you for this moment of happiness and wonder. These fleeting images, these scenic flashes, brought back to mind all of Kurosawa's films. Their desperate beauty in the face of a tragic world. Art remains our only recourse against the suffering and meaninglessness of existence. Beauty may not save the world, but it is all we have left to keep us from dying while we're still alive. This little montage made me cry with joy.
It's difficult to find words to praise Kurosawa, as a director he was one of the most authoritative possible and few people think about how influential he is. He is a very special director This video perfectly summarizes this, I wanted more works with your language.
I had a movie from him called 'peach orchard' to study for a project, And let me tell u it is still one of my fav movies from anyone. Every shot is is well-thought and magnificent it make me think like I am dreaming
Akira Kurosawa, who is known as a sublime Japanese film director. Kurosawa, who won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival for "Rashomon" (1950) and was internationally acclaimed for his work on "Seven Samurai," has also provided excellent direction in this film, making it very worthwhile to watch. Kurosawa's many excellent works strongly inspired George Lucas, Spielberg, James Cameron, JJ Abrams and others who were still young at the time, but are now active as prominent directors, and led the world of film, becoming an object of admiration for young directors. Akira Kurosawa is without a doubt a legendary man, and his achievements will never be forgotten.
I just watched Ran last night, it was the first in color Kurosawa film I've watched and it was absolutely beautiful. I think spending decades filming in black and white allowed him to nail down the fundamentals so when he was finally able to use color he was able to use it to its full effect. I won't forget that shot, you used it in this; of the man riding horse back towards the camera in a field and there's a ray of sunshine following his path. That's the sort of stuff you can never plan for and when it does happen it's like magic.
The landscape defines the person. Kurosawa expressed this to the fullest. I think he reminds Westerners, who have a tradition of anthropocentrism, of forgotten landscapes. But he was also skillful in portraying people. It is said that Kurosawa respected Ozu. Ozu accurately captured and brilliantly portrayed people who blended into nature. He accomplished what even Kurosawa could not. But ...... Kurosawa is more famous now. Kurosawa's beauty is a proof that he was more concerned with the universality of the landscape than anyone else to the end.
this is without a single doubt your greatest ode to any director on this channel ever. This made me want to rewatch Kurosawa's lineup again, which I will, thanks to you.
A beautiful montage using common scenic elements of different Kurosawa's movies. The most suttle passage is the scene where a couple looks at the bright stars in the dark sky and the next scene is of a moving car whose black painted metal body reflects the street lights at night. This is poetic. Thank you.
Thank you for this clip of Kurosawa's movies. A stunning vignette of his beautiful work. He was a masterful and visionary director. Kind Regards. Colin F. - New Zealand
Thank you very much for making me aware of such a great filmmaker. I wasn't knowing him & his work until I saw this video. Whatever that I saw here is a treat for my eyes. To honor such a talented artist, I will watch his work and enjoy this beauty. Thank you once again !!
I tell people constantly, you dont get what we consider Anime without this man. Every frame's scope, colour, elements, staging, blocking, stoicism and feeling is what you see in every anime.
I was just watching Ran by Akira Kurosawa and this video popped up!! Glad you have captured the true essence and soul of all his films ❤ and the editing is just top notch!
This was, after the beauty of horror cinema, my most anticipated video. You’re really special, and so this channel. To me this is the best thing on UA-cam and no one can convince me otherwise.
You're brave for even attempting to condense a video on Akira Kurosawa's cinematography to only three minutes, and not succumbing to the urge to make it three hours.
This is the best of your "the beauty of" series that I have watched so far... Obviously, you've got a very good grasp of the grand master's aesthetics... I really enjoy watching your videos... I'm grateful for the good moments having here at your place...
The scene at 0:53 is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen put to film. It might not seem like anything at first, but after many viewings I believe in that scene alone Kurosawa was able to capture the essence of childhood.
Kurosowa helped bring Japanese cinema to the world he paved the way for so many great Japanese filmmakers who've left their marks but none bigger than Kurosowa, not to mention the many western filmmakers he's inspired as well
Je me suis fait une grande partie de sa filmographie très récemment avec la collection blu-ray de Wildside, ça fait plaisir de retrouver les plans que j'ai aimé dans cette vidéo !

@@nealluczkiewicz6846 he didn't make the art tho? He simply took it and put it in his UA-cam channel
"Every frame is a painting" is the best description of the way Akira directs films
Couldn't agree anymore
Exactly my thought, about...5 seconds into the video at most

Similar to Stanley Kubrick

It’s time well spent !

Absolute cinema.
He loved nature, you feel that in every frame. Wonderful...
The best video seen till date... in 63 years of my life...

A beleza e o lirismo de um impacto desconcertante.
Um grande artista com uma sensibilidade impar.
Lindissimo!!!!
Just rewatched Sanjuro. I swear to God dude, every single shot is absolute eye candy, truly a master of the craft

Best of all time & Masterclass in long short capturing

Akira Kurosawa is the greatest film director of all time.
Mesmerized and speechless
After watching a few of these movies and watching Snyder's movies, I see why Snyder admires these movies so much❤

Can you elaborate on the stoicism that you see? Interesting comment
Je l'attendais vraiment celle-là, vraiment magnifique ca donne envie de faire toute sa filmo
I've been expecting this video for many time 😎
Loved the scenes of Throne of Blood, Kagemusha, and of course the greatest, Rashomon
Kurosawa’s visual narrative is captivating from film to film. Masterful editing & presentation! We need part 2, 3,…to inspire our senses. ✌🏼& 🎥
I was just watching Ran by Akira Kurosawa and this video popped up!!
Glad you have captured the true essence and soul of all his films ❤ and the editing is just top notch!
i love this channel so much. thanks for rendering these clips in 24fps
He was the Master. Every other director in History has "borrowed" from him.
Been waiting long for this one! It's great to see it, at long last. Great job at compiling such a prolific and masterful director, thank you.
This was, after the beauty of horror cinema, my most anticipated video. You’re really special, and so this channel. To me this is the best thing on UA-cam and no one can convince me otherwise.
brought me to tears, holy shit. I have to watch this man's films
Stunning!!! I LOVE your content!!!
Japanese critics say there is one Japanese movie that tops all Akira Kurosawa films, which is "The Human Condition Trilogy"
But theses are from a Kurosawa's friend: _Masaki_ _Kobayashi_
Ooh, that times are gone! With good movies, good directors, good stories!
Kurosawa was from another world.
You're brave for even attempting to condense a video on Akira Kurosawa's cinematography to only three minutes, and not succumbing to the urge to make it three hours.
One of the all time great masters of cinema.
Thank you.
Every Frame a Painting. That's Kurosawa Akira.
The music you chose to use for these is so important. Well done sir.
Sensei has been ahead the time,I am glad he stood the way he love for art art's sake.
ITS LIKE YOU READ MY MIND! I was JUST going to watch this.
His cinematic touch is unparalleled to this day.
absolutely beautiful!! I would watch 1 hour of this video. Next time you could do a vídeo about masaki Kobayashi. Keep the great work.

This was gorgeous! I know it's a long shot, but it would be really amazing if you also did one for King Hu movies
Kurosawa is the GOAT in my opinion.
I still have not seen one of his films yet. I am looking forward to it though.
For me the GOAT is Tarkovsky.
@@colinthomas2525 Tarkovsky is hard to beat! hes actually my second favorite after Kurosawa. I was actually just about to watch the Sacrifice.
Fantastic edit
Not only a giant artist but a giant humanitarian. 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏽♥️🙏
I love Japanese cinema 🤩
Breaking Bad owes a lot to Kurosawa's work.
UNFORGETTABLE! From Rashomon to the Hidden Fortress, Kagemusha and Ran... These movies simply live with you in eternity after you watch them.
Terrific editing.... Great selection of frames....👌👌👌
Worth the wait. Beautiful. I am so curious to know how much of this was done post, how much we're seeing was shot directly.
Music is quite similar to a film, he said. Thank you for the upload.
One of the GOATs 🐐
Akira Kurosawa is one of my favourite artists, and he’s not even an artist. He’s also a genius film director you should know
which film?
@@PeterPing I think Sanjuro is not mentioned enough. It doesnt have these beautiful shots as in the video but a pretty entertaining sequel to Yojimbo
@@Fanthomas1742 The final shot/scene in Sanjuro is pretty damn awesome
Absolute legend.
In my opinion Akira Kurosawa is the best director of all time
maestro kurosawa. su cine sigue viviendo.
Speechless. A masterpiece of an exhibition for a great artist from one talented and badass mutha fka. 10/10
Akira Kurosawa was such a brilliant director that when he got the chance to make a colored movie, he absolutely nailed it!
