In postwar Tokyo, a blunt, alcohol-soaked doctor diagnoses a swaggering young yakuza with tuberculosis, forging an uneasy bond that’s tested when the gangster’s ruthless former boss returns and drags him back toward the swampy underworld he can’t escape.

Drunken Angel
This one definitely inspired a bunch of other films, Shootist for sure. It was engaging near all the way through, but it didn’t stand out to me. The second half under delivered in my opinion and this kind of story’s just been done better since.
Still a well made movie.
