#3 A Colt Is My Passport
from Better Than Speed Hosted by Better Than Speed
Never cross the Yakuza. The cherubic cheeked Joe Shishido stands his ground against a Japanese crime syndicate with a thirst for revenge in this action-packed and surprise-filled episode. From Tokashi Nomura to Seijun Suzuki and beyond, we yak it up about the Nikkatsu Noir crime genre and finally answer your burning question: Is A COLT IS MY PASSPORT better than shooting up a speed ball? You can watch both A COLT IS MY PASSPORT and next episode's Czech New Wave selection DAISIES on FilmStruck, where they offer a 14-day free trial of their movie streaming service. Plus, check out these scintillating scans of the real life Yakuza trade magazine Jitsuwa Jidai we reference in our conversation.
