High & Low - 8/10
A non-samurai Kurosawa film - the first one for me. A poor boy, mistaken for the son of a rich man, is kidnapped and held for ransom. Does the rich man pay the ransom of the son of his chauffeur and suffer financial ruin, or save the boy's life? Fine acting, interesting plot, played out in film-noir style. Solid performance as ever by the rampaging Toshiro Mifune.
