Research Abstract	This is to display the peculiarity of Akira Kurosawa' s films in the Japanese cinema. It is assayed by analyzing Box Office No1 films shot by shot of Japan, the U.

Kurosawa' s films to prove Kurosawa' s peculiarity. And these sampling data of three counties made it possible to articulate the difference of three countries, Japan, the U.
