Rare and compelling Japanese crime drama.

Ken Takakura was, with Toshiro Mifune, the most known Japanese actor in Hollywood, or may I say in the rest of the outside Japan world. We saw him in YAKUZA and BLACK RAIN, remember. He had such a poignant face expression for sad stories, gripping atmospheres of crime, drama or honor tales. This film makes no exception. He plays here a yakuza released from jail after fifteen years for murdering a gang boss. A gang boss who, at this time, had a young daughter. A girl who have grown up in the mean time, as you can guess... Yes, a true yakuza movie, but with not so much action, nor violence, no gun shots, just blades... Takakura Ken at his best.

"I'm happy just looking at paintings."

The world before Kano understood the beauty of Tchaikovsky's music was a cruel one. She said she often wrote him letters at a cafe, so he wanted to try it himself. Yes, he could fake normal, drinking coffee and listening to classical music. It's an easy thing to do. But the truth remains that the discrepancy between Yoko's world and his was too much. His gaze was always uncertain and anguish; the patterns of his old life were back, as though they were stuck in a Sisyphean loop.

Excellent framing technique and the choice of classical music, as well as an oyabun that loved paintings, makes it unusual setting of both beauty and macabre.
