   When did 'Ikiru' come out?

   • Ahead was his popular classic “ The Seven Samurai ” (1954) and other samurai films like “The Hidden Fortress” (1960), the film that inspired the characters R2D2 and C3PO in “Star Wars.” The film was not released internationally until 1960, maybe because it was thought “too Japanese,” but in fact it is universal. I saw “Ikiru” first in 1960 or 1961.
