The Lower Depths
(1957)Donzoko
|
Based on the play by Maxim Gorky, this surprisingly comical tale focuses on the daily tribulations of a group of lower-class people living in a small tenement. Osugi (Isuzu Yamada), the landlady, bickers with Okayo (Kyôko Kagawa), her sister, over the man they both want -- Sutekichi (Toshirô Mifune), a thief. Akira Kurosawa's tragicomic film is especially notable for Mifune's remarkable performance as the edgy yet sensitive Sutekichi.
