Needed 30 minutes more


I really liked most of Throne of Blood, but I felt like it really neglected Miki's fate and the pregnancy, like Kurosawa was in a hurry to get to the great final scene. I think that more development on both of those aspects would've lent the movie a greater emotional weight. Kurosawa didn't seem shy about turning out long movies; this one felt too short and suffered from it a bit.
