DESCRIPTION:Action star <strong>Yusaku Matsuda </strong>started his journ
 ey towards melding arthouse film and pop in this mesmerizingly stylized an
 d Nietzschean heist film about a war reporter planning to rob a bank. Scri
 ptwriter <strong>Shoichi Maruyama</strong> became an overnight sensation
  for his unique mix of the surreal and hard-boiled realism. Haruki Kadokaw
 a used the film to embark on a new kind of small-scale blockbuster that em
 phasized artistic freedom. Though based on a bestseller by <strong>Haruhi
 ko Oyabu</strong>\, Kadokawa told Maruyama: "All I want is the novel's tit
 le and your modern sensibility." Foreshadowing the self-reflexive play of 
 Japan's bubble era\, the film tackles the insecurities of an increasingly 
 international Japan. <strong>New 4k restoration</strong>! \n<em>1980\, 1
 19 min.\, DCP\, color\, in Japanese with live English subtitles. Directed 
 by Toru Murakawa. With Yusaku Matsuda\, Takeshi Kaga\, Hideo Murota. </em
