Dare Daniel Presents: Canon Fodder – Episode 1

Rashomon (1950; Dir.: Akira Kurosawa)

From the heroes who brought you Dare Daniel…welcome to Canon Fodder!

In the coming months, years, decades and lifetimes, friends and fellow cinephiles Daniel Barnes and Corky McDonnell will be randomly working their way through the cinematic canon. For their pilot episode, Daniel and Corky review Akira Kurosawa’s highly influential 1950 masterpiece Rashomon. Or do they? There are a few different takes floating around out there.

Released at a time when film culture was so young that a single movie could change everything forever, Rashomon did exactly that. But is it still relevant to modern audiences? Listen along as Daniel and Corky put the movie to the test on their Slight or Sound scale.
