So, 'やくざ番外地 抹殺' directed by Nozomu Yanase is a gritty piece of cinema from 1969. It dives deep into the murky world of crime, reflecting the tensions of its time. The pacing is somewhat languid, but it builds this oppressive atmosphere that really pulls you in. The practical effects, while not over-the-top, add to the realism and grittiness of the narrative. The performances are raw, offering a glimpse into the psyche of the characters navigating loyalty and betrayal. You get this sense of a lost era, a kind of melancholy mixed with danger. Definitely has its own vibe, and you can feel Yanase’s touch throughout. It feels like a snapshot of its time, you know?
