Summary:
"In this powerful early noir from the great Akira Kurosawa, Toshiro Mifune bursts onto the screen as a volatile, tuberculosis-infected criminal who strikes up an unlikely, unhealthy relationship with Takashi Shimura's jaded physician. Set in and around the muddy swamps and back alleys of postwar Tokyo, Drunken Angel (
Yoidore
Tenshi
) is an evocative, moody snapshot of a troubled time and place, featuring one of the director's most memorably violent climaxes."--Container.
