Playa playa. Another fantastic Mizoguchi; not as aesthetically impressive as Osaka Elegy but the story and the dialectic are killer.
Good beats and fun at first, but gets redundant and kind of dull as it proceeds. It was a rush job before he went off to jail and you can really hear it, he's mumbling through the whole thing and kind of buried in the mix. Not a bad aesthetic, but not ideal for showing off one's storytelling chops.
