5.0 out of 5 stars Post war tension created by the threat of atomic war, 18 Mar 2001
By C. E. Elliott (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: I Live In Fear [VHS] [1955] (VHS Tape)
Akira Kurowsawa's 'I Live in fear' is an excellent examination of the fear and tension created in post war Japan by the constant threat of atomic annihilation. The characters in this film are portrayed incredibly well. The central character played by Toshiro Mifune is excellent and immediately draws the viewer into a world of collapsing family values which he replaces with his terror of nuclear war.

3.0 out of 5 stars Akira Kurosawa, 19 Oct 2008
By Mr. G. Sturdy "sakura amazon" (Yarm, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An interesting oddity from Kurosawa - Mifune plays a character twice his age who is rapidly going mad. A small but detailed booklet is included. DVD is expensive though and it may be better to pick up the BFI 'Classic Kurosawa' boxset which includes this movie.
