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."

If this is your first movie with us, welcome! The Byrd is general admission, so you can sit wherever you like. I’ll be there about 10min early in the front row. If it isn’t packed, we tend to spread out so people can relax their elbows. You’re welcome to sit with or come say hi! After the movie, we’ll chat outside under the marquee. Please stay and talk with us!
