Murder on D Street - Akio Jissoji 1998
#yeah.... watched this movie again#NO COMMENT#the fuckigns gtjduthsjshfnrhejwgdifnsthgskhg#the way tokiko and akechi mirror fukiya's pride and consumation by his work#the way saito contrasts his relationship with sex and pleasure (<- not just in relation to sex but work and life in general)#saito is downright hedonistic and fukiya is so encompassed with his work he forgets everything else#tokiko and akechi both pride themselves in their image and status respectively and those are things that fukiya also cares greatly about#fukiya has some fucking thing going on with his gender or sexuality or both and you can never pin it down and i LIKE it that way#and the way that is then mirrored by the assistant at the end#also ALL THE MIRRORS. reflection pervades in every shot#dim lighting and slivers of sunlight. mirrors and smoke and papers. quick cuts that leave you wondering what you really saw#IM NORMAL ABOUT THIS MOVIE#Murder on D Street
