Stray Dog (A Requisite Cinema Screening) / Japan/ 1922/ Dir: Akira Kurosawa/ 142 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 100%
A bad day gets worse for young detective Murakami when a pickpocket steals his gun on a hot, crowded bus. Desperate to right the wrong, he goes undercover, scavenging Tokyo's sweltering streets for the stray dog whose desperation has led him to a life of crime. With each step, cop and criminal’s lives become more intertwined and the investigation becomes an examination of Murakami's own dark side. Starring Toshiro Mifune, as the rookie cop, and Takashi Shimura, as the seasoned detective who keeps him on the right side of the law, _Stray Dog_ (_Nora Inu_) goes beyond a crime thriller, probing the squalid world of postwar Japan and the nature of the criminal mind.
Stray Dog is screening as part of an ongoing Requisite Cinema spotlight showcasing Janus Films' 2025 restoration work of many of Akira Kurosawa's most celebrated works. Check Broadwaytheatre.ca for more titles!
