Inhalt: |
ln this jazzy gangster fiIm, reformed kilIer Phoenix Tetsu’s attempt to go straight is squashed when his former cohorts caIl him back to Tokyo to heIp battIe a rivaI gang. This onsIaught of stylized violence and trippy coIors got director Seijun Suzuki (Branded to Kill) in troubIe with Nikkatsu studio heads, who were put off by his anything-goes, in-your-face aesthetic, equal parts Russ Meyer, SamueI Fuller, and Nagisa Oshima. Tokyo Drifter is a deIirious highIight of the briIliantIy excessive Japanese cinema of the sixties. |
