Notes
  • Based on the novel by Tsuneo Tomita.
  • Book included in box set titled: AK100 : 25 films by Akira Kurosawa (96 p.)
  • Originally produced as a motion picture in 1943.
  • "This film has been modified (without consulting the director) from the original version of Akira Kurosawa's debut film which opened in 1943. 1,845 feet of footage was cut in 1944, to comply with the government's wartime entertainment policies. As much as we'd like to show the original version, we are not able to locate the cut footage. Yet we strongly believe this modified version is worthy of rerelease. April 1952, Toho Company, Ltd."
  • Pacific Film Archive collection; non-circulating. CBPF.
  • Cinematography, Akira Mimura ; editor, Toshio Goto ; music, Seiichi Suzuki.
