Ran

Probably the best adaptation of a play ever made.
A couple of years ago, I studied Shakespeare's King Lear in order to write a paper/assignment on it, and this was incredible, perhaps even better than the play itself.

An epic of legendary proportions, Kurosawa really outdid himself here. The cinematography is stunning and the writing (based upon one of Shakespeares best plays) is breathtaking, making “Ran” not only one of Kurosawa’s best pieces but one of the best films of all time. 10/10

This is the most beautiful film I have ever seen, and yet Kurosawa was going blind while directing it?! That man was put through so much during production, and was able to produce an absolute masterpiece. That is true passion for his craft, and definitely shows in the product.
