Review of High and Low (1963) by Kevin M. W — 24 Jan 2013
A botched kidnapping can make for a taut thriller as Kurosawa proves in this fluid tale, years and years before CSI or any number of police procedurals (seemly broadcast hourly of late). The chase is the thing here, and Mifune's role, though central, is not the only game in town by any means.
Very enjoyable watching the Toyko police go after their man.
