Sympathy For The Underdog (1971) review
This is not merely classic that speaks to those who felt lost due to the rapid shifts that upheaved the Japanese societal field after the second world war, but continues to speak to those who feel out-of-place, who feel like Gunji unsuited for this world of ‘criminal’ suits.
The Most Dangerous Game (1978)
A stylish noirish experience that offers many satisfying action moments and a chance for the male spectator to fleetingly savour an impossible fantasy of male desirability.
The Fearless Avenger (1972) review
A satisfying sequel to `Trail Of Blood` that delivers everything a fan of the genre desires – blood, betrayals and lots of sword-fighting.
Irezumi (1966) review
“Masamura delivers a phenomenal narrative, a true post-war classic.”
