Ran (40th Anniversary)

Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Akira Kurosawa’s Oscar and BAFTA award-winning film Ran in this glorious 4K remaster. Ran (which translates as "turmoil") is Akira Kurosawa's profound exploration of Shakespeare's King Lear intertwined with the historical backdrop of Japan's 16th century Civil Wars and the legendary tale of Morikawa, a feudal warlord with three sons. Kurosawa's film was immediately recognised as a masterpiece upon its release and garnered numeroud awards, including the Oscar for Best Costume Design and BAFTA awards for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Makeup. Hidetora Ichimonji, played by Kurosawa regular Tatsuya Nakadai, is an ageing warlord who, after spending his life consolidating his empire, decides to abdicate and divide his kingdom amongst his three sons, Taro, Jiro and Saburo. The latter foreseeing difficulties, opposes his decision, and is consequently disinherited, thus beginning a tale of treachery, murder, and dishonor.ActionPT2H40M12A2025-07-04
