Kurosawa aparently like to play with depth of field so that in some films he 
used very small apertures to get extreme depth of field (although at some 
cost to quallity of course).  He also made some excellent color films too (eg 
Ran (king Lear)). A really creepy B&W film of his is "Throne of Blood" 
(Macbeth). It must have the most chilling Lady Macbeth ever.
