Although it may have been luridly eye-opening to the Japanese society of 1960, Koreyoshi Kurahara's delirious new wave drama leaves a bad taste in your mouth. After getting caught stealing, Akira, a psychopath, spends time in a juvenile detention centre. Upon his release, he picks up where he left off, stealing a car with his buddy and a prostitute friend, and then he relentlessly targets and harasses the journalist who caused his earlier arrest and his artist girlfriend. Akira loves jazz (Chico Hamilton style) and the movie is edited to a hep feverish rhythm but its stylishness can't overcome the brutal content. With no moral sense, perhaps not even an understanding of what is right and wrong, Akira moves from one situation to another, always doing the wrong thing, the wicked thing - but yet he grins all the way through. The central action involves rape and its consequences and the film ends without punishment for Akira nor any real commentary on his actions or even a comment about the society (or world) that could produce such a person. Everything is laid out to shock viewers but I wouldn't recommend this except for its historical value; a better take on the same ideas is Oshima's Cruel Story of Youth (also 1960).
