In Reply to: RE: "Fires on the Plain:" the most searing depiction of war ever filmed. posted by tinear on July 07, 2008 at 15:37:25
One of those rare peices of work that should be considered art rather than film narrative.

Follow Ups:
Ichikawa pretty well book-ended the subject of the futility of war with the very dark 'Fires' and with the terribly moving 'The Burmese Harp.'
Pity so many who should see these films think that them being 1. foreign 2. B/W, 3. "old" means they are a waste of time.
Thanks for bringing Kon's work up; timeless masterpieces.
Best,
C.
