POP, JAZZY NOIR, SURREAL, NIHILISTIC COOL - MEET THE MAVERICK OF 1960s JAPANESE CRIME NOIR With directors such as Quentin Tarantino, Wong Kar-wai and Jim Jarmusch citing director Seijun Suzuki as one of their major influences, this boxset is a must-have to experience this director's most classic works. Tired of having to make standard studio B-movies in the 1960s, Seijun turned his hand towards the surreal, introducing us to gay knife-throwing Yakuza and hitmen who get sexually aroused by the smell of boiling rice. This is the world of rebel director, Seijun Suzuki. DVD Special Features Original Trailers
