Viewing Notes

I loved the very non-deterministic locations and the great black and white cinematography. The story, while not complicated, kind of weaves back and forth with lots of stoic posturing we’ve come to expect from Nikkatsu Noir films.

I’ve had this for a while but finally opened it up and put it on before The Last Drive-In since I called it an early day for work.
