In a visually sumptuous journey through the master’s imagination, tales of childlike wonder give way to apocalyptic apparitions: a young boy stumbles on a fox wedding in a forest; a soldier confronts the ghosts of the war dead; a power-plant meltdown smothers a seaside landscape in radioactive fumes. Interspersed with reflections on the redemptive power of creation, including a richly textured tribute to Vincent van Gogh (who is played by Martin Scorsese), Akira Kurosawa’s Dreams is both a showcase for its maker’s artistry at its most unbridled and a deeply personal lament for a world at the mercy of human ignorance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-sticky-column-left=\"\" class=\"left\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-sticky-left-content-end=\"\" class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-product-image-url=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/criterion-production\/films\/e9fc8a91b2f9ebe10efb6edde367dffe\/LRIg86I1YijdtiaQ7G1aWN6USnhprt_large.jpg\" data-product-name=\"Akira Kurosawa’s Dreams\" data-product-sku=\"\" data-product-id=\"1213\" data-segment-analtyics-tracking=\"\" class=\"product__details_contain_a\"\u003e\n\u003csection data-sticky-left-content-end=\"\" data-sticky-left-end=\"\" class=\"product-features collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"collapse-contain\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-feature-title-field=\"\" class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\"\u003e4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-special-features-field=\"\" class=\"product-features-list\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K digital restoration, supervised by cinematographer Shoji Ueda, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special features\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio commentary featuring film scholar Stephen Prince\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeature-length documentary from 1990 shot on set and directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterviews with production manager Teruyo Nogami and assistant director Takashi Koizumi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eDocumentary from 2011\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eby director Akira Kurosawa’s\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s3\"\u003elongtime translator Catherine Cadou, featuring interviews with\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efilmmakers Bernardo Bertolucci, Alejandro G.
