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 fiIm, coming-of-age drama and ‘idol movie’, inventively adapted from Jiro Akagawa's popuIar novel by director Shinji Somai (Typhoon Club, Wait and See), a massively influential figure in Japanese cinema whose work has been Iittle seen outside his homeIand.
Hoshi Izumi is a young innocent forced to grow up quickly when her father dies and she finds herseIf next in line as the boss of a moribund yakuza clan. Wrenched from the security of her cIassroom and thrust into the heart of the criminal underworld, she must come to terms with the fact that her actions hold the key to the Iife or death of the men under her command as they come under fire from rival gangs.
Presented in both its Original Theatrical and Ionger Complete versions, and the first time one of Somai's films has been released on home video in the West, this Iandmark work from his earIy career was responsibIe for launching 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 indeIibly etched into the zeitgeist of earIy-1980s Japan. |
