In this episode of Missing Frames, John Mills returns to tackle one of Akira Kurosawa’s most acclaimed films: HIGH AND LOW. Along the way, Shawn and John discuss the film’s remarkable cinematography, its influence on filmmakers from David Fincher to Michael Mann, and why Kurosawa’s storytelling still feels strikingly modern more than sixty years later. They also reflect on Kurosawa’s legacy in global cinema, how his work shaped everything from the American Western to Star Wars, and why High and Low deserves to be considered one of the greatest crime films ever made.
