Vid needed: Asian, pre-1969 source

Cherry and I are putting together a vidshow for vids made from older (pre-1969, pre-1973 at a stretch) sources and as we were discussing it, we realized that there was a significant cultural gap -- we were missing vids made from older Asian sources. So we went looking. And looking. And looking. And came up with a couple Youtube vids that were sort of okay, but not really what we wanted.

So I reach out to you, my fellow vid lovers. Do you know of any vids, preferably based on the work of Akira Kurosawa? If you don't know any vids, might you be inspired to make us one? A PREMIERE? 

Some great potential Kurosawa vidding sources include Seven Samurai (proto-Magnificent 7), Ikiru, Yojimbo/Sanjuro (proto-A Fistful of Dollars), The Hidden Fortress (proto-Star Wars), and Throne of Blood (Macbeth!).

We would also welcome premieres for any other pre-1969 Asian source. We're trying to make sure our playlist is properly diverse. Get in touch with me at nate AT monkeyswithjetpacks.com.

Huh.

The Club Vivid vid that I nearly gave up on? Just finished a full draft. It's not really a *good* vid by any stretch of the imagination, but I don't think it was ever going to be.

Also, my Prisoner vid for VidUKon is nearing a final draft. Just waiting on betas.
