series Oshima X Godard
Directed by Nagisa Oshima | 1960
With Yusuke Kawazu, Miyuki Kuwano, Yoshiko Kuga
This furiously nihilistic delinquent youth shocker plays like an angrier Rebel Without a Cause for postwar Japan. A pair of sadistic-kinky teenage lovers disillusioned with society discover a life of crime in Tokyo’s underbelly. With its bold, neon-splashed visuals and anarchic attitude, Oshima’s sophomore film announced the arrival of the Japanese New Wave.
