That's the film I mentioned as "Nora Inu", it's known as
"Stray Dog" in Finland as well. And why not "The Driver" seen
as samourai film? But Walter Hill doesn't have Kurosawa's
humanity or even caring for the people he depicts. Hill's
films lack human feelings. And they have been very very bad
for at least last five years, e.g. "Trespass"...
