Jackie and Greg arrive at the next Kurosawa on the list, the insanely influential RASHOMON from 1950. Topics of discussion include the film's groundbreaking narrative style, a debate over which of the versions of the story is most accurate, why the baby at the end ties things up a little too neatly, and how it's a pluviophile's dream come true.

Next Episode
Frances Ha [2012] // Personal Prints
It's Jackie's turn to pick the Personal Print this time: it's Noah Baumbach's 2012 portrait of twentysomething life in New York City, FRANCES HA. Topics of discussion include the influence of Baumbach vs. Greta Gerwig, the film's roots in the work of Woody Allen and the French New Wave, its free-flowing episodic structure, life in your twenties, and a conversation on the mumblecore subgenre.
The continuation of our "Personal Prints" series where Jackie and Greg venture off the Sight & Sound “Top 100” list to explore films that are special and/or formative to them.
