Show Notes
Akira Kurosawa was a legendary director of adaptations, with one of his most famous coming from author Ryūnosuke Akutagawa's short story "In a Grove." In episode 259, Luke & James get a history lesson in Japanese short fiction, try to untangle a web of lies and exaggerations, examine a World War II metaphor, debate which character is the actual worst, trust the words of a medium, and consider the legacy of one of the greatest films of all time. They finish by voting which was better: the short story or the movie! Ink to Film
