The Hoodlum Soldier
Rare, not-on-DVD films from Yasuzo Masumura
Sun November 20
2011, 7:00 only

The Hoodlum Soldier features a great example of Masumura's ability to focus on something very specific -- here the life of infantry and artillery men stationed in the barracks of Manchuria -- to illustrate how individuality is no match for the larger hierarchical structure of Japanese society. It was a commercial success and sparked seven other films between 1965 and 1972, with Masumura only directing the first and last installments.
