Someone has upload a minute-long video on YouTube that includes shots from some of his movies, and ends with Kurosawa saying a few words about how his intentions have been to make “beautiful films”. I don’t know where this is taken from, but you may nevertheless want to take the moment and watch it here.
Someone has gone through a number of Toshiro Mifune’s samurai roles and mashed it all together with the song “Holding Out for a Hero” playing on the background as performed by Frou Frou from the Shrek 2 soundtrack. The result is this Youtube video.
