'Wolves, Pigs and Men' Director: Kinji Fukasaku (1964) Eureka Masters of Cinema Limited Edition Blu-ray | Restoration |  | Japanese w/ English subtitles

Blending the staple themes of the Japanese gangster film with narrative and aesthetic qualities borrowed from the French New Wave and American film noir, comes an uncompromising treatise on brutality and brotherhood.

When the eldest of three brothers born into poverty finds an escape from his squalid beginnings by turning to organised crime, soon both his younger siblings follow him into the yakuza lifestyle. But they don't see eye to eye, each of them showing more loyalty to their criminal comrades than to each other. When an opportunity to pull off a potentially lucrative heist arises, what ensues is a series of betrayals and horrifically violent acts that will test the bonds of blood to their breaking point. 

Starring Rentarō Mikuni (Harakiri, A Fugitive from the Past) and the inimitable Ken Takakura (Abashiri Prison, The Yakuza).
