Ikiru (A Requisite Cinema Screening) / Japan/ 1952 / Dir: Akira Kurosawa/ 143 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 98%One of the greatest achievements by Akira Kurosawa, Ikiru shows the director at his most compassionate—affirming life through an exploration of death. Takashi Shimura beautifully portrays Kanji Watanabe, an aging bureaucrat with stomach cancer who is impelled to find meaning in his final days. Presented in a radically conceived twopart structure and shot with a perceptive, humanistic clarity of vision, Ikiru is a multifaceted look at what it means to be alive.
Ikiru is screening as part of an ongoing Requisite Cinema spotlight showcasing Janus Films' 2025 restoration work of many of Akira Kurosawa's most celebrated works. Check Broadwaytheatre.ca for more titles!
