From The Dream Of One Man
Where does an artist get his ideas from?
Akira Kurosawa gets his from his own dreams. Intriguing!
For me, the process of getting the first idea to the last stage of completing a finished work, is always enthralling.
Here is one example of that fantastic journey from start to finish.
(It starts with an advert which you should ignore before the first part comes on).
Dreams (1990 film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dreams is a 1990 magical realism film based on actual dreams of the film's director, Akira Kurosawa at different stages of his life. The film is more imagery than dialogue. The film was screened out of competition at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival.[1]
From Akiro Kurosawa's DREAMS series:
The Peach Orchard Hina Matsuri, the Doll Festival, traditionally takes place in spring when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. The dolls that go on display at this time, they say, are representative of the peach trees and their pink blossoms. One boy's family, however, has chopped down their peach orchard, so the boy feels a sense of loss during this year's festival. After being scolded by his older sister the boy spots a small girl running out the front door. He follows her to the now-treeless orchard, where the dolls from his sister's collection have come to life and are standing before him on the slopes of the orchard. The living dolls, revealing themselves to be the spirits of the peach trees, berate the boy about chopping down the precious trees. But after realizing how much he loved the blossoms, they agree to give him one last glance at the peach trees by way of a slow and beautiful dance to Etenraku. After they disappear the boy finds the small girl walking among the treeless orchard before seeing a single peach tree sprouting in her place.
