Kurutta ippêji

The Japanese film A Page of Madness is about impressions. It's a film you'll watch because the act of watching it can leave something in you. There are images here that are surreal even today - it's like a work of art that simply doesn't get old and that is to some extent a kind of depressing depiction of a time or a particular event. From the opening credits, the Japanese are hitting you hard and it works all the way through. (2019.03.11)
