I watched this film on a lark on MUBI, and I am so glad I did. It's an amazing piece of film that gathers together the experiences of Russian people and POC in Wisconsin during a riot, as the world upends itself around the characters. Beautifully shot and scripted, it also gives screen time and representation to people with physical disabilities without coming off as a pandering ploy for extra credit. If you haven't watched this film, I suggest you do so now.
The Samurai series is one of my favorites. Toshiro Mifune is by far one of the most classic and amazing Japanese actors of the screen, and he outdoes himself in the Samurai series. The colors, the settings of these films are amazing, and part III, with it's wonderful dual at Ganryu Island, is by far one of the most well-planned and conducted films in history. If you have not seen this series, you need to; it need not matter if you are a Samurai film junkie or just a cinemaphile, you will enjoy the subtle touches that make this one of the finest trilogies in film.
I'd also suggest seeing Yojimbo, Sanjuro and of course the Seven Samurai; other great titles are "The sleepy eyes of death" and The Lone Wolf and Cub series.
