It’s a beautifully told story of a hard working man. I love how it built up from just plain “boring” working, until finding what is the meaning of life and fully enjoying it to the fullest. While it may look and feel boring, I think it purposefully is. Beautiful film. 9/10

Really need to watch this again in better conditions because I know the way I watched it is what hindered it. I will rewatch it later in the year but I did enjoy it. Great performances and really asks a lot of deep, deep questions. My bad this isn’t higher

The urge to squeeze out all of what’s left from the very last bit of your life. To want it to make sense. To want it to mean something. To want to live.
This is my first and forever favorite Kurosawa movie.
