StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #1288 [Ran (1985) Winner: MonStar]
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.
Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.

MonStar wins with Ran (1985). I just saw this movie for the first time last night after meaning to check it out for years. Directed by Akira Kurosawa and adapted in part from Shakespeare's King Lear, it's about a fictional feudal lord in Sengoku-era Japan who, as he enters his twilight years, hands his domain over to his sons, who quickly proceed to tear it apart through intrigue and strife.
