King s***

F***in

Ordet is your fave dreyer right? Or is it day of wrath? Or vampyr?

Feel like its ordet

Lmaooo never seen this with that caption before

Seven Samurai X 10

Yeah they're all masterpieces but I think maybe Order goes a little deeper in the type of rarified air that approaches actual transcendence or whatever

Not even top 3 Kurosawa of the decade (although I did finally gain a proper appreciation for it with that last 4K restoration )
