Dog of Fortune
Excellent, impossible to forget. In addition to a well-built script full of twists and turns, the film features an excellent, perfectly characterized cast, good cinematography and a soundtrack with perfect jazz funk fusion rhythms. The mix of political intrigue with the attached police investigations combined with the daring adventures of an exceptional and never domine dog, as the nature of the species wants, is very interesting and original. Japanese cinema manages numerous times to give the viewer fantastic moments, I personally loved Antarctica (1983) and then Woman in the dunes (1964), Kuroneko (1968), Onibaba (1964), Kwaidan (1964). Cure (1997) The Twilight Samurai (2002), Little Forest: (2014) (2015), One Cut of the Dead (2017) and many others such as the classics of Kurosawa, Kitano, Mike, Ozu, precisely Kobayashi, animation Myazaki and numerous manga, including the samurai sagas of Ogami and Zatoichi. This film, as far as I'm concerned, is therefore one of the best ever seen in the filmography so far seen of the Japanese country, which is why I attributed a full 10/10 to it.
