Editor's Note: Apologies for the audio flaws throughout this episode, if you don't listen, we understand. I know it sounds like Max Headroom guest hosted, but unfortunately it is just us.
Score your theme songs and come drift away with us this week, dear listener! We're continuing our 2023 AntiTrash Crime Wave marathon with Seijun Suzuki's Tokyo Drifter. The surreal new wave-y movie propels us to Japan with the story of a guy trying to get out but getting dragged back in. We're talking characterization, leit motifs, westerns, pioneering cinema, and much, much more as we move on down the road. Join us now!
