There are some interesting faces in this flick. The head of gang Tetsuro Tanba, who thinks he is dying hits it big some years later
as the Japanese male lead opposite Sean Connery in "You Only Live Twice" (1967). An old guy who defends the honor of the female lead
ends up playing Admiral Nagumo in "Tora, Tora, Tora" (1970).
Beyond those interesting connections, this flick is fairly complex
and has a bit of a fatalistic theme. Some the main characters have
to break out of their environment to change their destiny. Only one
is able to do that. There are a few comedic moments. It is worth the time to see the plot. :-)
