Retro Film Series Presents!
Akira Kurosawa’s THRONE OF BLOOD: New 4K DCP!
(Japan, 1957, 109 min)
A vivid, visceral Macbeth adaptation, “Throne of Blood” sets Shakespeare’s definitive tale of ambition and duplicity in a ghostly, fog-enshrouded landscape in feudal Japan. As a hardened warrior who rises savagely to power, Toshiro Mifune gives a remarkable, animalistic performance, as does Isuzu Yamada as his ruthless wife. Throne of Blood fuses classical Western tragedy with formal elements taken from Noh theater to create an unforgettable cinematic experience.
