Moscow Film Society: Ran

Wednesday, July 15 at 7 PM

“SPECTACULAR…The wide-screen, color-coordinated battle scenes will blow your mind, and must be seen in a theater. Don’t ever think of watching Ran on a DVD or cellphone!”
— V.A. Musetto, New York Post

Moscow Film Society presents RAN as part of their Picture Perfect series featuring films selected to showcase our stunning new projector and screen! With Ran, legendary director Akira Kurosawa reimagines Shakespeare’s King Lear as a singular historical epic set in sixteenth-century Japan. Majestic in scope, the film is Kurosawa’s late-life masterpiece, a profound examination of the folly of war and the crumbling of one family under the weight of betrayal, greed, and the insatiable thirst for power.

 Rated: R | 2 hr 40 min | Tickets: $8 Adult / Film Pass
