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,

- "Burmese Harp," yes, very good film. Should be far more well known. nt - tinear 17:20:32 07/10/08 (0)
