If you accept that the Professor is a surrogate for Kurosawa, then you can't help being a little put off by how everyone worships him and respects him and goes out of their way to help him. The people who surround him are mere shells of personalities. I guess if anyone has earned the right to be a little egotistical, it's Kurosawa, but still. Nonetheless, it is beautiful and touching in many ways. The montage of the professor and his wife in their tiny shack as the seasons change is lovely.
