This is awesome; I mean in Kill Bill, the Fukasaku influence with Tarantino is obvious, but this is the only reference to it I've seen so far in a Tarantino interview.
Chiba was great but Watari Tatsuya and Sugawara Bunta were for me the best in Fukusaku movies. Also some of the episodic roles were great, I remember the character named Ichioka in the final installment of original ''Battles without...'' played by Matsuka Hiroki, absolutely stole each scene he was in.
Also, the Yagyu Conspiracy is awesome. I feel embiggened to know that QT likes that film, but I guess that since he's a Sonny Chiba fan that makes sense.
Tarantinos glamourised John Woo gangsters are nowhere close to the devious, dirty, brutal egomaniancs of Fukasakus Yakuzas. It's funny to see how he never cared to look into it and just "stumbled" over this grandmaster of film. And he got completely confused when starting to talk about "The Legend of the Seven " golden" Samurai" where he totally mixes up Shaw Brothers "Legend of the seven golden Vampires" with Kinji Fukasakus "Legend of the Eight Samurai". Don't do drugs kids. This whole thing is a complete mess. Tarantino talking about Sue Shiomi and then they show Bunta Sugawara. Yes, that's how you do journalism. :D
lol Tarantino wont talk about Fukasaku's gangster films because he will have to admit that he ripped him off....his style, his characters, action scenes, everything........loser tarantino
He's never in his life not admitted to taking movies he likes and remixing them for a new audience who he hopes will then go and watch the original works... What losers like you (10 years in the past 😂) don't get is every director does this... Fukasaku has his own inspirations.. It's how directors work
Fukasaku's yakuza movies are so amazing. Nothing else really has the same feeling of real people and settings.
I have just bought 6 of Kinji Fukasak's movies.... I love his work....
Me too. He's amazing.
5:04 For all the French spectators: Les sous titres francaises devraient dire „qui se déroule dans les temps féodals“ he said FEUDAL times, not FUTURE
