I think Kurosawa has a strong catalog all around.

I was actually just looking at his filmography on imdb. I know he is considered a genius, and I believe I would appreciate most of his work, but his catalogue is HUGE. I may have to do a little renting before I commit to him.

I'm a big kurosawa fan. I'd recomend Seven Samurai, Yojimbo(godd the bad and the ugly was based off of it), Ran, Kagemusha, and Dreams, that should get you a good start

Love Kurosawa, hated Ran, big time. With a passion. Found it incredibly slow and dull, and I'm a guy who often really loves slow films.

I'll take Yojimbo, Seven Samurai, Sanjuro, Kagemusha, The Hidden Fortress, Rashomon, and lots more instead.
