A classic I hadn't seen. In fact I hadn't seen any of Kurosawa's movies.
The meta-story-telling aspects are engaging, and the movie as a whole has an effective, Samuel-Beckettian absurdist feel. It's not that fun to watch, being a little slow, and without characters to sympathize with much (aside from the rape victim, who doesn't take on much humanity until the movie's half over, and even then--.) But as an adventure in film-watching, great.
