Kurosawa Akira started out as a painter, then an assistant, before the war. He did only one scene involving anything remotely sexual, and that's in Seven Samurai.
Uh--maybe not. There's also Ran.
Kurosawa Kyoshi is the rage in film festivals today. Saw his License to Live, 1995 or 1996. He's part of The Cinema of the Comatose (my term), which includes Angelopolous, Kore-eda, Edward Yang, Hou Hsiao Hisen, and Tsai Ming Liang, who's not exactly a crowd fave around here (now you know why). Lav Diaz admires him a lot (now you know why Lav does the films he does). The softcore porn flick he made was probably in the '80s.
Haven't seen Gamitan--so I can't go pro or con. May catch it--right now my priority is the Cinemanila flicks.
