Drunken Angel
Bogged down in post-war Japan

Akira Kurosawa once said, "A truly good movie is interesting and easy to understand." His 1948 film Drunken Angel fits that description.

The plot would be cliche if Kurosawa didn't drag the center of the film to the
Arts and Entertainment reviews and news.
