From director Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai), Stray Dog is one of the earliest Japanese detective films and an examination of postwar Japan’s dark side.A bad day gets worse for young detective Murakami (Toshiro Mifune) when a pickpocket steals his gun on a hot, crowded bus. Desperate to right the wrong, he goes undercover, scavenging Tokyo’s sweltering streets for the crook whose desperation has led him to a life of crime. Meanwhile, seasoned detective Satō (Takashi Shimura) tries desperately to keep him on the right side of the law.
A masterful mix of noir and police thriller, Stray Dog is a stylistic film full of atmosphere that probes the squalid nature of the criminal mind.
