Crazed Fruit (Criterion Collection)

Hollywood wasn't the only place where movies about rebellious teens seeking fun were made in the '50s and '60s. This Japanese drama about two beach-loving brothers who spend the summer boating, drinking, and competing for the same woman shocked audiences with its energy and sexual frankness and spawned a whole genre of "taiyozoku" ("sun tribe") films. Ayuko Fujishiro, Taizô Fukami star; Kô Nakahira directs. 86 min. Standard; Soundtrack: Japanese Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer. In Japanese with English subtitles.
