日本殉情伝 おかしなふたり ものくるほしきひとびとの群 / Nihon junjô-den Okashina futari. 1988.

日本殉情伝 おかしなふたり ものくるほしきひとびとの群 / Nihon junjô-den Okashina futari. 1988.
Full movie title: 日本殉情伝 おかしなふたり ものくるほしきひとびとの群 夕子悲しむ / Nihon junjô-den Okashina futari Monokuruoshiki hitobito no mure.
Based on the comic book by Jūzō Yamasaki and Kei Sadayasu.
The central story revolves around a love triangle between a loan shark, his wife, and their childhood friend who is recently released from jail, but it was told from a fourth-person perspective, an unreliable narrator (at the end of the film it implies the story is an imaginative fabrication of the narrator). There’s a subplot about a seaside cinema having its last show, playing Shima Koji’s 1952 film Shanghai gaeri no Lil, with the then-retired leading man playing a part in this film, thus further blurring the margin between the real and the fabrication. The film is imbued with Obayashi’s idiosyncratic narrative device, absurd slapstick humour, extravagant use of colours (the bright red and blue suits worn by the two leads for instance).
Director: 大林宣彦 / Nobuhiko Ôbayashi.
Cast: Riki Takeuchi, Tomokazu Miura, Toshiyuki Nagashima, Kaho Minami, Aiko Shouriki, Tôru Minegishi, Michitarô Mizushima, Yoshi Katô, Kumeko Urabe, Chikako Miyagi, Chin Naitô.
Japan, 1988.
Language: Japanese.
