Red Beard

ToshirĂ´ Mifune gives another towering performance in his last collaboration with the ever versatile master Akira Kurosawa in the shattering film about the goodness of mankind. A young and arrogant doctor is transferred to a hospital for the poor run by a tough but compassionate doctor who teaches the young man few lessons about life and their profession. Kurosawa's moving and touching homage to the human condition is breathtaking in its sincerity without one false beat. As usual a terrific cast and crew makes this film another classic to cherish. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
