No Regrets for Our Youth
Kurosawa's first post-war film stars Setsuko Hara as the privileged daughter of a professor who takes up arms against the Japanese military.
Director: Akira Kurosawa
Overview
Kurosawa's first post-war film stars Ozu regular Setsuko Hara as Yukie, a privileged daughter of a professor who takes a soul-searching journey through rural Japan and comes to question her values, deciding to join the fight against the state of wartime Japan.
Even now a sobering, ennobling experience, the film remains a rebuttal to those who say Kurosawa didn’t understand women.
