At a popular resort during the Edo Period, a man is murdered. As everyone gossips about the matter and waits for the samurai in charge of the investigation to do something, honeymooning Hideko Takamine takes time out to solve the crime.

It’s a pleasantly run mystery, about on par with some of the better American B series. The well known performers include Kazuo Hasegawa, Ureo Egawa (as the murder victim) and Reizaburô Yamamoto. I was interested in the question of whether this can be considered a historical mystery, a sub-genere that arguably had its roots in the Chinese ‘Judge Dee’ novels of the late 800s. However, except for some costuming and the means of murder — arrows — I think it’s pretty much a standard mystery with a hotel setting.

I’d still like to see more of Miss Takamine as a detective.

Young yakuza Shujiro Hanada (Takakura) goes to prison after losing his cool in a rigged gambling game and slashing a few other players. When he’s released in 1927, the world has changed. His sister died in the Great Kanto Earthquake and his father is also gone. His brother Jukichi (Ikebe) invites him to stay at his in-laws and works in their family pub. Shujiro is trying to go straight. He lies low, helping his blind mother-in-law and slowly developing a relationship with Ikuye, the hostess who helped him before his arrest. But trouble lurks when the resident gang decides to show its strength. It all leads to a showdown between the two brothers and around 20 sword-wielding gangsters.

Masahiro Makino’s attempt at a Busby Berkeley-style musical. Quality is mediocre (much better than the older version we had though), but the film is a true revelation! It combines the elaborate kaleidoscopic choreography of Berkeley musicals with a charming down-to-earth comedy narrative.
