★★★★ — Ikiru (1952)
The 1950s was a decade of giants: Kurosawa, Hitchcock, and Ozu were all at or near their peak, producing films like Vertigo and Tokyo Story that cinema is still measuring itself against. Hollywood simultaneously fought television with widescreen spectacle while its finest directors quietly made their most personal work. See what Macca made of it all below.
