What is the author's style in Something Like an Autobiography by Akira Kurosawa?

Akira Kurosawa writes the story of his life, of course, with unique authority. The beginning of the story is rather jumpy and inconsistent which could be attributed to the fact that he is writing from memory. He does not make references to journals or diaries or testimonials and therefore the reader must assume he is depending upon his own recollections. He sometimes references other people's accounts of incidents.
