Pale Flower
Masahiro Shinoda's ode to nihilism is a
yakuza noir. Ryo Ikebe is a disenchanted killer who finds momentary
happiness around a wild young gambling woman, who digs high risk at the tables and in her sports car. A very
unusual, beautifully presented disc from Home Vision Entertainment and The American Cinematheque.
