Paper Summary:

This paper deals with Akira Kurosawa's film "Dreams," describing it as a sample of sights and sounds of Japanese culture.

The author describes the incredible cinematography as well as the message of each of the vignettes in "Dreams."

From the Paper:

"There is no greater film experience than director/writer Akira Kurosawa's Dreams (1990). Kurosawa brings to life his Dreams in a series of film vignettes that are extraordinary in cinematography and content. Beginning with the opening vignette, Sunshine Through the Rain, the audience experiences the colorful and clarity of the highest quality of cinematography; the audience is hooked, even though you're not the least bit fluent in the Japanese culture or language. This particular vignette focuses on a young boy who, on a rainy day, wanders into the woods after a caution from his mother has piqued his curiosity. Foxes, she cautions, have their wedding ceremonies on days when the fain falls while the sun still shines; and they don't like to be spied upon. In fact, they don't forgive being spied upon. Obviously, to a six year old boy, this is incentive enough to quickly sneak off and into the woods to discover what his mother has cautioned him against as an unforgivable transgression."
