A hustler who gets in trouble with a gang boss in the port town of Sukago agrees to make good with the don by putting him in contact with a mysterious hitman — an assassin the hustler has no idea how to contact. Instead, he hires an actor to play the role, though the thespian has no idea what he’s getting into.

Viewing Notes
Another hilarious film from Koki Mitani that includes a sequence so funny we were rolling off the couch. Maybe not for everyone’s comedy tastes but his style humor works for me (and my girlfriend, who considers him her favorite director, even tho she’s not a movie fan).
