Yue Shih yueshh — This was one of the few books (ever) that I just could not read. And I tried twice...

Merna Taha manonalove8cd6 — This book had come out a few years ago, and I kept waiting to buy it. Several years later, and now out of print, it commands up to several hundred dollars. I staked out Ebay and after time sniped a softcover for $50. I was pretty damned excited. For the first few chapters I was on fire. Here was an in-depth, passionate, clearly written biography of an amazing pair of collaberators- Akira Kurosawa, director and Toshiro Mifune, actor. I couldn't wait to read more. So much for that. About 1/3 of the way through I have come to find this is more of a chronological summary of each film. There is precious little biographical detail aside from release dates, synopsis, production budgets, and credit lists. It takes a lot of sifting through the facts, to get to any nuggets of insight into either man. I'm now power skimming through the book, trying to glean what I can before I loose interest or fall asleep. Not recommended except for the diligent or bored. ======================= Having now, by pure force of will, finished the book my previous comments still stand. This was probably the least satisfying read since Capote, which was a real piece of crap. It's infuriating to read these huge tomes ostentatiously about major figures, only to come away with a sea of minor facts and random anecdotes. I think it would be a fair comment that if this was a high school book report, it would receive an E for EFFORT. I'd write more, but at least I know when to stop.
