I just finished Akira Kurosawa’s excellent movie “Dreams”. Having seen nearly everything he ever made–I want to say Kagemusha is my favorite, but there are so many to choose from–I realized I had seen this film as well, but probably 25 years ago.
Watching, it occurred to me that in great art you feel an open connection between the art and your unconscious/deeper self. This connection permits movement in that realm, which is normally hermetically sealed.
Finding this connection, or permitting this connection, takes time and practice opening yourself up.
With regard to this movie, the last vignette is particularly enjoyable. It is a vision of a beautiful society, living in harmony. This is all possible. We can learn to live together peacefully and joyfully.
