  1. i want the link of this movie song which was played in climaz portion.
    can anyone please help

  2. usually, I don’t watch Japanese movie.
    but THIS IS GOOD FILM.
    so in love with 70’s atmosphere.
    good actors, good script, everything was so good. it was the first time I cried and laughed at same time😂

  3. Kitano didn't have that speaking-out-of-the-side-of-mouth quirk until after his motor accident. This is an impression of him now, not as he was in his youth.

  4. I read the book of the same title by Takeshi Kitano, if you wan't to understand who he is, read it !!!

  5. i dont understand why he kept doing that thing w his mouth as if he was already paralysed though wasnt this before his accident

  6. If you’ve watched Kitano Takeshi’s works and you so love them, you better watch this one.
    You could know this is how Takeshi Kitano grow up in his youth as in one direction.
    Actually he says this was good but it’s just movie blushed up, however in fact that period was more tough than this one.

  7. The director of this movie is one of the Japanese comedians who has been rejected this project by all filmmakers except Netflix. He hasn't given up to create this movie. I love to give great applause to him and Netflix…

  8. No joke I cried A LOT watching this movie. Even if you don't know who Takeshi Kitano is, this movie worth watching.This was just… SO GOOD

  9. This movie was pure genius I loved every boment of it! I hope everyone loved it as much as I did!! 🥰
