Drunken Angel 48'

[vengeanceofhumanlanterns]

Just watched this film a couple of weeks ago. Really great in some ways, like the post war effect on japanese culture, really impressive atmosphere because of that ie: the westernization of the town or city they (Toshiro and Shimura) were in. The ending was a bit of a let down. That ending fight was just silly, being so mellow dramatic and just whatever, but I really enjoyed Shimura's performance.

I've been meaning to give this a rent, it's always so sad to see the westernization of Japan but that's usually what most of these movies deal with.
