Show notes

Akira Kurosawa'sHigh & Low is one of his many reworkings of Western culture through Eastern eyes. This time it's the Ed McBain's pulpy King's Ransom that is turned into a taut noir thriller that takes viewers from the stately estates to the squalid sewers.

Joining Mike & Mondo Justin is VCinema's Coffin Jon.
