Rashomon 羅生門 (1950) (chatGPT Picks Our Movies #1)

DISCLAIMER: This film talks about sensitive topics such as rape, though not explicit or gratuitous, it is still discussed.

WE’RE BACK! That’s right babyyyy, we’re back and we are doing a new topic today. This one we have been waiting to do for a long time now and the time has finally arrived. Caleb brought up the idea that we should let chatGPT pick a film for us to watch. We asked AI “Give us a movie that a film snob would watch.” and we chose from a list of 10. WE originally picked Apocalypse Now….but it did not exist AT ALL on the internet for streaming, renting, or buying! So we chose the classic from legendary director Akira Kurosawa, “Rashomon 羅生門.” A film that inspired a handful of films and most recently “The Last Duel,” which we talk about on pod. A film that is packed with things to talk about, we hope you enjoy!
