An early Okamoto yakuza film, though its not in the Underworld series (along with The Last Gunfight and The Big Boss) despite being alternatively known as Death of the Boss. While Okamoto did not write this film and took on the project because he was assigned and just doing [his] job according to an interview with Chris Desjardins in Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film, he did express a general excitement about working in action cinema (which shows through in this films energy.) I have no plot to share, unfortunately, so Ill just add a few more screencaps than usual to make up for it.
