Review of Tokyo Drifter (1966) by Jason M — 27 Jan 2008
This is pop-art surrealism meets the gangster genre. never mind that the story makes no sense, characters appearing randomly only to leave immediately after. one memorable seen is a single shot of a man who says 'is this some practical joke?' addressed to no-one and he never appears after.
great use of colour and the film shots are interesting, though chaotic. its as though suzuki deliberately ordered his shots to baffle the audience. worth the watch for its artistic merits, and fun soundtrack.
