IntroductionF |
Though initially made as an addition to the then-booming trend of yakuza movies, the film turned out to be a sophisticated work that went beyond conventional genre films. Taking advantage of a high-profile cast, UCHIDA expressively tells the story of a botched love triangle and a futile revenge. Daring techniques such as shifting to monochrome in the climax scene and the striking design at the end prove impressive.
