Episode 120 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul

This week's episode, thanks to the randomness of Movie Roulette , means that Liam has to select a movie directed by Akira Kurosawa.

Liam's choice this episode is Throne of Blood from 1957. Cineastes beware… this episode may offend some of you out there…we couldn't see what the fuss was all about.

Returning to their lord's castle, samurai warriors Washizu (Toshirô Mifune) and Miki (Minoru Chiaki) are waylaid by a spirit who predicts their futures. When the first part of the spirit's prophecy comes true, Washizu's scheming wife, Asaji (Isuzu Yamada), presses him to speed up the rest of the spirit's prophecy by murdering his lord and usurping his place. Director Akira Kurosawa's resetting of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" in feudal Japan is one of his most acclaimed films.
