Watched this last night, it could have been too serious but it has the requisite quality of humour to keep it on the correct side of the line.

#DrunkenAngel
Ainda tenho em falta alguns Kurosawas, principalmente destes "contemporâneos". Clássica temática tradicionalismo vs modernidade num pós 2a GM decadente com um Toshiro Mifune hipnotizante.

@a0dbxza Saw your post earlier today and watching it now. 😃 A restrained #Mifune (nice to see on occasion) and the supporting cast really shines! Kind of an interesting precursor to #Kurosawa ‘s High and Low. Going to try to squeeze in #DrunkenAngel tonight too.
