Ran (1985).
Great cinematography, slow burn rising action like the building of a storm, and Lady Kaede is quite possibly one of the most subtly unsettling characters I've ever seen portrayed in fiction.
I've only seen Seven Samurai, Rashomon, and Dreams. Of those, I actually like Dreams the best. I suppose that's probably going to be an unpopular opinion.
Ran
Three of his movies are my favorites though I haven’t seen anything of his short of great yet.

Seven Samurai. It really kinda defines Kurosawa's style to me.
