Metadata:

With its bright color palette, creative use of the Ginza nightclub district, and catchy pop-ballad theme song—which the protagonist croons at every opportunity—Tokyo Drifter starts by indulging the hedonistic youth culture of 1960s Tokyo and builds toward stylistic abstraction in its climactic gunfight, filmed in nearly empty studio space with striking shifts in color and lighting. Suzuki’s minimalist soundstage set blurs the distinction between fantasies, supernatural, and reality, creating a fever-dream-like cityscape. In English and Japanese with English subtitles. Contains mature content, including violence.
