Francis Ford Coppola – :
Any film director who can count a minimum of 12 masterpieces among his films is clearly unique and worthy of serious study. An excellent introduction to the work of Kurosawa.
Billy Altman, Cultural Critic: New York Times, New Yorker – :
From filmmaker to filmgoer, you’re always in good hands with a little Pepperman at your side — and…Watching Seven Samurai is no exception.
Stephen Prince, Author, The Warrior’s Camera: The Cinema of Akira Kurosawa – :
Richard Pepperman gives the reader a lively, scene-by-scene tour of Kurosawa’s masterpiece, pointing out the visual and storytelling choices that make the film so distinguished. For many of us, the book’s title speaks truth.
