About Eclipse 17:Nikkatsu Noir

From the mid-1950s to the early 1970s, wild, idiosyncratic crime movies were the brutal and boisterous business of Nikkatsu, the oldest film studion in Japan. In an effort to attract younger audiences accustomed to American and French big-screen imports, Nikkatsu began producing action potboilers modeled on the western, comedy, gangster and teen-rebel genres. This collection represents a standout cross section of the nimble nasties Nikkatsu had to offer, from such daring directors as Seijun Suzuki, Toshio Masuda and Takashi Nomura. Titles include I Am Waiting(1957), Rusty Knife (1958), Take Aim at the Police Van (1960), Cruel Gun Story (1964) and A Colt Is My Passport (1967). In Japanese with English subtitles. The Criterion Collection.
