Rashômon (1950)

[Movie 73 / Day 43]


I can see why it's critically acclaimed, but I was in totally the wrong mood for this tonight. I nodded off a couple of times, thanks to there being long periods with no dialogue at all, in fact, there are several bits with no sound at all - often closely followed by maniacal laughing or a woman's scream. That woke me up a bit.

Maybe I'll give it another go someday, but not for some time.

My rating: 6.2 / 10
IMDB rating: 8.5 / 10
Running time: 88 mins
