Labyrinthe and necessities: Kurosawa Aberrant Spaces

Abstract

In Throne of Blood, Kurosawa offers a vision of Macbeth set in feudal Japan. He does not stick to stage conventions, nor does he aim at any spatial realism. Instead, he uses the ontological lability of film to create an unreal space in which all borders are blurred. The traditional vision of the forest as a maze finds a counterpoint in a fog-infested, featureless landscape which further conveys the loss of all values and certainties.
