RAN

Original Japanese 20 inch x 28 inch Poster for the 1985 Akira Kurosawa Drama RAN, based on the play ‘King Lear’ by William Shakespeare and starring Tatsuya Nakadai, Akira Terao, Jinpachi Nezu, Daisuke Ryu, Pita , Mieko Harada and Yoshiko Miyazaki.

Kurosawa reimagines Shakespeare’s King Lear as a singular historical epic set in sixteenth-century Japan. Majestic in scope, the film is Kurosawa’s late-life masterpiece, a profound examination of the folly of war and the crumbling of one family under the weight of betrayal, greed, and the insatiable thirst for power

The poster is in fine unfolded (rolled) condition.
