In Which I Ruin Rashomon For Everyone, Forever
Trying to "solve" Rashomon is absolutely the stupidest possible way to approach this Kurosawa masterpiece. But diagramming it in a bullheaded attempt to figure it all out... that can only be described as a sensible use of one's time. Now with added Ted Sallis!

This makes me want to see Rashomon very badly. It also makes me want to set you loose on Primer, Hero, and the video game Braid.

For some reason this makes me think there should be an Asperger's Syndrome guide to Classic Films.
