This is easily one of the most awesomely trippy movies I've ever seen

I love this film, Too bad I can't find a DVD copy anywhere around.

I overheard two students talking. They thought it was a boring waste of time. I can understand that. But I don't agree myself. I think it's a lot of fun, yes, trippy & abstract, but also beautiful looking too. It's like a Japanese Barbarella. It also seems like a collection of all the things Suzuki would have put into his next 60s films for Nikkatsu (shooting a diver from the pool) if he hadn't been fired first.

Seriously, I always qualify my favorite Japanese movie with, "Modern or classic?". Cause I can't split this and Seven Samurai.

The theme song is called 'Psychoanalysis' in English, and it is on the albums 'Michishio No Romance' and 'Best Wrappin' 1996-2008', both available in the US as imports. They REALLY should have put this song on the Pistol Opera soundtrack!

Several versions of 'Stray Cat's Theme' is on the Pistol Opera soundtrack, but it is the slower, more languid piece that you here halfway through the trailer.
