  I like both, but I particularly like "Sexy Beast" for Ben Kingsley's over-the-top performance.
  
  For Brazilian films, I like the gangster-in-the-making film "Pixote," about juvenile criminals, with "City of God" a distant second.
  
  I am not up on Yakuza films, if you have some recommendations, I would love to hear them.

  • Yakuza? Any of the Beat Takeshi films. Also, Miike's films are justly revered in Japan. nt - tinear 20:40:35 09/15/10 (0)
