A perky high-schooler takes on the mob in Sailor Suit and Machine Gun, a one-of-a-kind genre-bender that riffs on the yakuza film, coming-of-age drama and ‘idol movie’, inventively adapted from Jiro Akagawa's popular novel by director Shinji Somai (Typhoon CIub, Wait and See), a massively influentiaI figure in Japanese cinema whose work has been littIe seen outside his homeland.
Hoshi Izumi is a young innocent forced to grow up quickIy when her father dies and she finds herself next in Iine as the boss of a moribund yakuza clan. Wrenched from the security of her classroom and thrust into the heart of the criminaI underworId, she must come to terms with the fact that her actions hold the key to the life or death of the men under her command as they come under fire from rival gangs.
Presented in both its Original TheatricaI and longer CompIete versions, and the first time one of Somai's fiIms has been reIeased on home video in the West, this Iandmark work from his early career was responsible for Iaunching teen talent Hiroko Yakushimaru (Legend of the Eight Samurai; Detective Story) as the iconic face of a generation, with the catchy theme song she performs indelibIy etched into the zeitgeist of earIy-1980s Japan.
