Review of Seven Samurai (1954) by Bosley Crowther for New York Times — 19 May 2003
On that simple framework and familiar story line, director Kurosawa has plastered a wealth of rich detail, which brilliantly illuminates his characters and the kind of action in which they are involved.
He has loaded his film with unusual and exciting physical incidents and made the whole thing graphic in a hard, realistic western style.
