Today I watched the 3 hour and 27 minute film Seven Samurai directed by the great Akira Kurosawa. It stars Takashi Shimura who is known to me as Dr. Kyohei Yamane from the first Godzilla film. It was made in 1954. 5 years before it's remake The Magnificent Seven. A third remake was made in the 80's called Battle Beyond the Stars and it stars Robert Vaughn who starred in the Magnificent seven. It does not sound very good. I would rate it as one of the top five best foregin films. A timeless classic.
