Episode 00 - Prologue
Description
Late 1920s Tokyo. A man performs in a darkened theater, his voice transforming silent images into art. He's a star. Then talking pictures arrive. The profession dies. He dies with it.
Three years later, his younger brother walks into the film industry. Working in the very technology that killed what he loved. His name: Akira Kurosawa.
Great cinema costs everything. This is where Beyond the Spine begins.
A journey through the Criterion Collection. One film per episode. The images, the context, the obsessions that drove them. Why they still cut.
Episode One: Seven Samurai.
