After discussing every Akira Kurosawa film in detail on the show, we conclude our retrospective with the herculean task of trying to rank all of his films. Listeners, you’re in luck, because you’re getting two lists for the price of one! We each have our share of basic and hot takes, and hope that you have enjoyed going through this Japanese master’s filmography as much as we have. If we were able to teach you something new, introduce you to a film you otherwise may not have seen, or even just give you a chuckle every once in a while, we want to thank you for listening to Sanshiro’s Boys.

One of the many subgenres that owes a debt to Akira Kurosawa is the “police procedural.” To that end, 1963’s High and Low is his masterclass in suspense, detective work, class commentary, and ethical dilemmas. In one of his final Kurosawa roles, Toshiro Mifune plays Kingo Gondo, a wealthy industrialist extorted by a mysterious kidnapper who has captured his son and held him for Japan’s highest ransom. Only… the boy was actually his chauffeur’s son. Will Gondo still pay the outrageous ransom for someone else’s child? Can the cops catch a man who has conceived a seemingly perfect crime? Listen to Sanshiro’s Boys and investigate with us!
