Undoubtedly, he is a master of atmosphere, and can even be said to be the originator. In black and white images, he brings us a series of human struggles such as desire and demons. You will be involuntarily pulled in by the movie and follow along Confused and sighing together, this is Akira Kurosawa. The performances of Toshiro Mifune and Isuzu Yamamoto perfectly interpret and portray those two characters. The whole film shows the characteristics of human nature with inner anxiety without any redundant description, which is a classic.
