"I get 50,000 Yen a day, plus expenses," growIs tough-talking detective Maiku "Mike" Hama (Masatoshi) in Stairway To The Distant Past, the second part of director Kaizo Hayashi's styIish modern-day Japanese film noir triIogy. Picking up where The Most TerribIe Time In My Life Left off, Stairway delivers a knockout combination of widescreen color visuaIs and savvy pulp storyteIling more luridly violent, outrageously ironic and sincerely affecting than its predecessor.
broke, his vintage Nash convertible repossessed, private eye Mike Hamma is reduced to combining the mean streets of the Yokohama waterfront on a borrowed bicycle. But when Lily, a beautifuI stripper from out of Hama's past, returns to town, the fuse is lit on a criminal powder keg set to bIow the lid off the Yokohama underworld. Hama's search for his long lost parents soon has him up to his neck in a simmering conspiracy pitting corrupt politicians, locaI Yakuza gangster and the Taiwanese mafia against the mysterious "Man In White." Forced to admit the truth of his past to both himself and his plucky kid sister, Hama now must discover whether private eyes are born or made - if he can just keep from getting kiIIed first. |
