Rashomon Iconic or what?

Under discussion:

Rashomon  (1951)
'Very Rashomon' ,or 'Rashomonlike' has become a shorthand movie term,of course...and it's not difficult to see why...the concept of the multi-perspective story, entered the mainstream cinema language...

Some of the aspects of some of the story threads may seem arcane ,or incredibly corny,but that would be to critcise them completly out of context...drawn together by the three 'misfits' sheltering from the rain,the conclusion is incredibly contrived,but ,somehow,also, amazingly moving
