No borders no limits : Nikkatsu action cinema : 日活株式会社
From 1954 until 1971, Japan's Nikkatsu studio was more than just another movie factory - it was the creative home to directors, stars and a genre Nikkatsu Action, that shaped the styles, attitudes and dreams of millions of young Japanese. Seijun Suzuki did his best work for Nikkatsu - including classics such as "Tokyo Drifter" and "Tattooed Life" - and Japan's most popular movie star, Yujiro Ishihara, made his biggest hits there. Illustrated with rare posters and stills, this book presents a detailed history of the Nikkatsu studio, profiles of leading directors and stars and reviews of dozens of Nikkatsu Action films, including the cult classics "Velvet Hustler" and "Black Tight Killers". Also featured are career interviews with director Toshio Masuda and Joe Shishido, the puffy-faced star of many Seijun Suzuki classics, including "Branded to Kill", "Youth of the Beast" and "Gate of Flesh".
