The Blade Licking Thieves podcast has hit 100 episodes! Thanks to all the listeners out there that have taken the ride with us. Please keep sending us your comments, feedback, and suggestions for new films or shows for us to watch.

This being the 100th episode, we thought what better time than now to finally break the glass and at long last tackle a work by Akira Kurosawa, arguably, THE Japanese film maker. Kurosawa’s first film to achieve critical recognition in the West, Rashomon (1950) tells the story of an encounter in a bamboo grove between a bandit (Toshiro Mifune), a samurai (Masayuki Mori), and the samurai’s wife (Machiko Kyo) ending with a rape and murder, yet the narrative is fragmentary, as the story is retold multiple times, through various eye witness accounts, often varying and contradictory, forcing the audience to judge “the truth” of the story for ourselves.
