Three Resurrected Drunkyards 1968 DVDRip XViD

Unbelievable fun once you grasp its quirky manner – one reel change alone can cause mass consternation in an unsuspecting audience – Three Resurrected Drunkards ranks high among the “buried treasures” of Oshima’s career. We’re crazy about it, and it was gratifying to see that some of the Oshima authorities are too. Drunkards is shot in eye-popping widescreen and pulsing colour – from purple underwear to paisley trousers to hot pink outfits sported at an onsen (hot spring) – and scored with crazed insistence (the music veers from James Bond parody to a pop song by lead Kazuhiko Kato, celebrated singer of the Sadistic Mika Band and the tall one of the three lead actors). All the better to serve its Hard Day’s Night tale of a trio of hapless young guys who have their clothes stolen while cavorting in the sea, are mistaken for Korean stowaways, and become involved with a young woman whose brutal older husband, sporting an eye patch and metal hook, represents Japan’s repressive older generation. This is 1968, after all, and amid the hi-jinx, chases, conceptual jokes and flash costume changes (including one into female drag), Oshima injects stinging commentary on the Vietnam War, Japan’s war guilt, and prejudice against Koreans, and gives the film a very powerful and moving finale. Reminiscent moment to moment of Tashlin, Godard, Sam Fuller, Buñuel, Drunkards makes for raucous satire, brilliantly achieved and surprisingly touching. As one fan recently wrote on Criterion’s website: “What a stunning, hilarious, and unforgettable film Three Resurrected Drunkards is.” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063169/
