This late-career anthology by Akira Kurosawa often confirms that Dreams are more interesting to the dreamer than their audience, but the directorial master still delivers opulent visions with a generous dose of heart. Read critic reviews

Movie Info
This imaginative Japanese production presents a series of short films by lauded director Akira Kurosawa. In one chapter, a young boy spies on foxes that are holding a wedding ceremony; the following installment features another youth, who witnesses a magical moment in an orchard. In the segment "Crows," an aspiring artist enters the world of a painting and encounters Vincent van Gogh (Martin Scorsese). Many of the films in this inventive movie are tied together by an environmental theme.

Very, very good. A visual delight and wonderfully atmospheric. Delves into light and dark and all between. Not to be forgotten, I feel as though 'Dreams' is very unique and cherish-able.

Such a beautiful movie this is. Truly a feast for the eyes.
-
some beautiful imagery for sure, but for a film that relies so heavily on visuals not the best in kurosawa's catalog.
-
Great film. Outstanding in every way. I just saw it again on Saturday, August 18, 2018. It holds up beautifully. Kurosawa is worth watching just for his visual magic, as is Fellini. However, in this film he tells a number of fascinating short stories, each as compelling as the others. I am a fan, so this is a biased review.
