Chuck, I agree with you on Frenzy but I'll have to part ways with you on Dreams. True, it's not Kurosawa's best work, but you have to remember that he was quite elderly when he made it - the thoughts and visions expressed in Dreams are in keeping with someone in their twilight years. Not only that, but you have to remember the traumatic experiences Kurosawa faced throughout the course of his life - the devastation suffered by Japan as a result of WWII obviously weighed heavily on his mind and I wasn't surprised to see those thoughts reflected in his....dreams. In any case, it's a nice film to just look at.
