Dreams (夢 , Yume , aka Akira Kurosawa's Dreams) is a 1990 Japanese-American magical realism film of eight vignettes written and directed by Akira Kurosawa.
 It was inspired by actual dreams that Kurosawa claimed to have had repeatedly.
 It was his first film in 45 years on which he was the sole author of the screenplay.
 It was made five years after "Ran", with assistance from George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola, and Steven Spielberg, and funded by Warner Bros. The film was screened out of competition at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival, and to this day has received positive reviews.
Snow Trail (Japanese: 銀嶺の果て , Hepburn: Ginrei no hate ) is a 1947 black-and-white Japanese film directed by Senkichi Taniguchi from Akira Kurosawa's screenplay.
 It was the first film role for Toshirō Mifune, later to become one of Japan's most famous actors.
 Mifune and the other main actor in the film, Takashi Shimura, later became long-term collaborators of film director Akira Kurosawa.
Hideo Oguni (小国 英雄 , Oguni Hideo ) was a Japanese writer who wrote over 100 screenplays.

 His first film with Kurosawa was "Ikiru", and according to film professor Catherine Russell, it was Oguni who devised that film's two-part structure.
 Film critic Donald Richie regarded him as the "humanist" among Kurosawa's writers.
 In 2013, Oguni and frequent screenwriting collaborators Kurosawa, Shinobu Hashimoto and Ryuzo Kikushima were awarded the Jean Renoir Award by the Writers Guild of America West.
The Akira Kurosawa Memorial Short Film Competition is a major international short film awards ceremony, run by the Akira Kurosawa Foundation.

Jacques Demy (] ; 5 June 1931 – 27 October 1990) was a French director, lyricist, and screenwriter.
 He appeared in the wake of the French New Wave alongside contemporaries like Jean-Luc Godard and François Truffaut.
 Demy's films are celebrated for their sumptuous visual style.
 Demy's style drew upon such diverse sources as Classic Hollywood musicals, the documentary realism of his New Wave colleagues, fairy-tales, jazz, Japanese manga, and the opera.
 His films contain overlapping continuity (i.e., characters cross over from film to film), lush musical scores (typically composed by Michel Legrand) and motifs like teenaged love, labor rights, incest, and the intersection between dreams and reality.
 He is best known for the two musicals he directed in the mid-1960s: "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" (1964) and "The Young Girls of Rochefort" (1967).
Peau d'Âne (English: Donkey Skin) is a 1970 French musical film directed by Jacques Demy.
 It is also known by the English titles Once Upon a Time and The Magic Donkey.
 The film was adapted by Demy from "Donkeyskin", a fairy tale by Charles Perrault about a king who wishes to marry his daughter.
 It stars Catherine Deneuve and Jean Marais, with music by Michel Legrand.
 "Donkey Skin" also proved to be Demy's biggest success in France with a total of 2,198,576 admissions.
Model Shop is a 1969 American film by French writer-director Jacques Demy starring Gary Lockwood, Alexandra Hay and Anouk Aimée and featuring a guest appearance by Spirit who also recorded the soundtrack.
 Demy made "Model Shop", which was his first English-language film, following the international success of his film, "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg".
 Aimée reprises the title role from Demy's 1960 French-language film "Lola".
Une chambre en ville (also known as A Room in Town) is a 1982 French film directed by Jacques Demy, with music by Michel Colombier, and starring Dominique Sanda, Danielle Darrieux, and Michel Piccoli.
 It is set against the backdrop of a workers' strike in 1955 Nantes.
 Like Demy's most famous film, "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg", it is an operetta-musical in which every line of dialogue is sung.
 But unlike "Cherbourg," it is closer to tragedy, with a darker, more explicitly political tone.
