Spymon:
I missed the chance to see some Akira Kurosawa  classics on 35mm, oh well, there's always DVD, but it's not the same :(

Demn:
Just find yourself a projector.  ;D

chii:
I love Kurosawa!!!!! he really needs more recongition in the west.  But if  you're more in the mood for postmodern madness, I recommend  Takahashi Miike's "Happiness of the Katakuris"!!!  That movie is freaking nuts!  I worte my final paper for a pomo film class on it last summer (and got a 3.9- oh yeah!)  

Don't watch "Audition" unless you have a very strong stomach adn don't care too much about plot continuity. Oh, and you'll never be able to call your kitty again!

Kichi, kichi,kichi...  kichi, kichi, kichi... ergghhhh!!!

Spymon:
Kurosawa is very highly rated in the west, here in the UK they've been doing retrospectives and DVD re-releases.  I think Ozu is a lot less well known in the West.  I gotta see more Ozu, but hard to find on DVD/VHS now I'm not at Uni any more.

Subu:
Ichi the killer is great and battle royale, versus arent bad either. dark water and suicide club I found rather boring.

Now I am waiting for BR2 and Kitano's Zatoichi to come out...
