high and low

akira kurosawa · 1963 · movie

recommended for: james

why they might enjoy it:
i think james would really enjoy kurosawa’s high and low. it’s a crime thriller about a kidnapping that builds intense, claustrophobic tension through suspense rather than action. the cat-and-mouse aspect would keep him completely locked in, and i’m so curious what he’d think!

content note: crime, substance use, violence, intense themes
