Review of Zero Focus (1961) by Walter M — 17 Nov 2010
Rather interesting and clever B&W mid-Century murder mystery, even more surprising in that it hails from Japanese cinema.
Shortly after her marriage, A wife's "salaryman" heads out of town to remote prefecture of northern Japan on what is supposed to be his last bit of business with his current employer. Instead, he vanishes into thin air. The wife has to travel north to sleuth it out for herself, and it's a twisty, turny trip indeed. To say any more would spoil.
RECOMMENDATION: If you like the genre, you'll love this taste of it, garnished with wasabi.
