Torrent description

In this upload, I’ve included some of the major works of the “big three” directors of Japanese cinema (Akira Kurosawa, Yasujiro Ozu, & Kenji Mizoguchi) along with some of the most significant films from five other renown "post-WWII" directors from Japan (Mikio Naruse, Hiroshi Teshigahara, Kaneto Shindo, Juzo Itami, and Takeshi Kitano).
And yes, I know Ukigusa Monogatari and Zangiku Monogatari are technically “pre-WWII” films, however, those two films are important early works of “post-WWII” directors, thus their inclusion.

All in all, there are 41 films in this upload.
