Ugh! I woke up at an ungodly time at 8:30 to make it to an Int'l film festival movie at 10:00. It was worth it though. The film was "The Sea Watches", a story that Akira Kurosawa wrote before he died, and the director did Kurosawa credit. Beautifully shot and a moving portrayal of 19th Century Japan, the so-called "Floating World" where the caste system was firmly in place with Samurai at the top, but the merchant class doing quite well for itself.
