Seven Samurai Report Abuse
When most people think of Akira Kurosawa they instantly think of the Seven Samurai, and for good reason. The movie is filmed and planned out brilliantly. Not only is it a powerful film, but it features powerful performances from its cast. It is has often been called one of the best films in history.
