Irowa Wakashu Furisode Zakura - 1959 - Color - Widescreen
When a young man hits the road looking for a yakuza 'Boss' name Gimbei, the Saint, he learns that his father had formerly been a yakuza, himself. The stage is now set for a fast-paced, and highly entertaining story featuring the fighting and singing of re*nowned superstar, Misora Hibari playing a young man on a mission. This is not the first film in which the androgynous singer-actress has played a man, but it may well be the best. With a strong supporting role by sword star Satomi Kotaro, this is a movie not to be missed. (TV Broadcast quality)
