Viewing Notes
Great to see this on the big screen in 35mm at Film Center! Thought I had seen this but apparently not (actually one scene I had seen; the early night club scene). Wish I wasn’t so tired after work to fully appreciate this but I’m super happy that they’re running a Seijun Suzuki series this month. Hopefully I’ll see most of them.
Joe Shishido is forever the badass.
