Philosophy @ the Movies: “Rashomon”
October 27, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Join the Philosophy Department for a viewing of Rashomon (1950)!
Brimming with action while incisively examining the nature of truth, “Rashomon” is perhaps the finest film ever to investigate the philosophy of justice. Through an ingenious use of camera and flashbacks, Kurosawa reveals the complexities of human nature as four people recount different versions of the story of a man’s murder and the rape of his wife.
- Genre: Drama

“One of legendary director Akira Kurosawa’s most acclaimed films, Rashomon features an innovative narrative structure, brilliant acting, and a thoughtful exploration of reality versus perception.” – Rotten Tomatoes
