A Young Rabble
Directed by: SASAKI Yasushi
Cast: MISORA Hibari, SATOMI Kotaro, CHIHARA Shinobu, OKOCHI Denjiro
When a young man hits the road looking for a yakuza 'Boss' name Gimbei, the Saint, he learns that his father had formerly been a yakuza, himself.
The stage is now set for a fast-paced, and highly entertaining story featuring the fighting and singing of renowned superstar, Misora Hibari playing a young man on a mission.
This is not the first film in which the androgynous singer-actress has played a man, but it may well be the best. With a strong supporting role by sword star Satomi Kotaro, this is a movie not to be missed.
1959 - Color - Widescreen
Japanese with English subtitles.
