Intimidation

Aru kyôhaku is a movie starring Kô Nishimura, Nobuo Kaneko, and Mari Shiraki. A bank manager is blackmailed into robbing his own bank.
Koreyoshi Kurahara's ingeniously plotted, pocket-size noir concerns the intertwined fates of a desperate bank manager, blackmailed for book-cooking, and his resentful but timid underling, passed over for a promotion. The marvelously moody Intimidation is an elegantly stripped-down and carefully paced crime drama.
