Kurosawa's Dreams
Aroview: Opinions vary wildly over this sequence of eight re-enactments of Akira's very own dreams - stunning photography and subtle use of effects (Van Gogh running through his own paintings), yet the odd lapse into sentimentality and tedium (perhaps a little like dreams themselves). Highlight involves a group of mountaineers lost in a blizzard whiteout.
