Would the script of the Kurosawa movie "Ran" be a blueprint for how to ruin a project ? Would Collins project?

publicly embarres Lady Kaede. The treacherous Ikoma and Ogura have given Jiro good service, as his generals in the recent campaign against their erstwhile lord, Hidetora. But now the traitors are themselves betrayed, when Jiro offers them presents in thanks but also in farewell, dismissing them on the grounds that having betrayed one master, they might betray another. Later, when Kaede enters, supposedly to congratulate Jiro for his new rank, she manages to overpower him. With a dagger pointed at his throat Kaede extracts from Jiro the truth about Taro's death, blackmailing him and becoming his lover. She demands that Jiro leave his wife for her. When Jiro offers to divorce his wife Lady Su and marry Kaede instead, she demands he have Su killed. As Ikoma and Ogura are traveling into banishment, they are discovered and killed by Tango, who learns that Jiro killed Taro and intends to murder his father should he recover sanity.
