“One of the few movies that might actually be able to inspire someone to lead their life a little differently.”
—Roger Ebert
In this early Kurosawa drama, an aging Tokyo salaryman, approaching retirement, contemplates the meaning of life — and more specifically, the meaning of his life — as he weighs the good he has done in the world and finds it wanting. He hurries to make amends as his life approaches its twilight. Free Member Monday — free admission for all AFS members on Monday, August 11.
