40th Anniversary 4K Restoration!
Kurosawa’s monumental, Academy Award-winning adaptation of Shakespeare’s King Lear has only grown in stature since its original release. Celebrating its 40th anniversary with a stunning new 4K restoration, this epic tale considers the disastrous consequences of Lord Hidetora Ichimonji’s (Tatsuya Nakadai) decision to abdicate and divide his kingdom among his three sons.
“A great, glorious achievement.” - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
