Akira Kurosawa – A Retrospective
THE HIDDEN FORTRESS (1958)
Tuesday, September 2nd at 7:30 PM
$16 Public | $10 Members
A grand-scale adventure as only Akira Kurosawa could make one, The Hidden Fortress stars the inimitable Toshiro Mifune as a general charged with guarding his defeated clan’s princess (a fierce Misa Uehara) as the two smuggle royal treasure across hostile territory. This rip-roaring ride is among the director’s most beloved films and was a primary influence on George Lucas’s Star Wars. The Hidden Fortress delivers Kurosawa’s trademark deft blend of wry humor, breathtaking action, and compassionate humanity. (Japan, 1958, 139 mins, Japanese | Dir. Akira Kurosawa)
