Inspired by Federico Fellini’s La Strada and a sharp departure from the Nikkatsu Action norm, Glass Johnny stars Shishido as a bike track tout whose mission in life is to make a winner out of a struggling rider (Hirata) and become rich as a result. Before he can achieve this, he becomes the unwilling savior of a pure-hearted, simple-minded prostitute (Ashikawa) on the run from her pimp.
Prior to Glass Johnny, Ashikawa’s portrayals of cute-but-spunky girls had won her a devoted male following-animator Hayao Miyazaki even later used her as a model for his anime heroines. In this film, however, she moves brazenly from childhood to womanhood, while following Giulietta Masina’s journey in La Strada from victimhood to transcendence.
