Welcome to my series, The Criterion Corner! In each episode, I will be talking about a film that is a part of the Criterion Collection. My goal is to inform and encourage people to watch these films, while I offer my personal commentary on each one.
In the seventh episode I will be talking about Akira Kurosawa's last epic masterpiece Ran! Based on Shakespeare's King Lear, a truly beautiful film!
In the sixth episode I will be talking about Peter Weir's Picnic at Hanging Rock. An early film from a truly prolific director!
