Akira Kurosawa--Music for Film: Record of A Living Being

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

Japan haunted by the bomb – and it was high time that Monsieur Kubrick told the world how he learned to stop worrying and love the bombe, which is due to Doctor Strangelove – and of course by the Scotland syndrome – the mental suffering due to being defeated by an unworthy foe; and since the Japanese once did repulse twice the Mongols the American conquest of their islands will trouble them a lot and so their harping about the bombe may be some sort of evasion from the more horrid truth.

While Monsieur Kurosawa should have been banned from making modern age movies as his Samurai tales are usually above his new age stuff; due this is no fault of him but of the modern times as life has becoming boring, tiny and secure; but the tale itself is a true tragedy of a man who destroys with his obsession/madness his family in the attempt to rescue it from danger; and while the story is told the bystanders and observes do question themselves about his fears, thus representing all Japan.

Do you have any music from Drunken Angel? That is possibly the most emotional and sympathetic score Hayasaka composed.

[GojiGuru]

Yes I have the main theme from Drunken Angel. I might post it in the near future.
