About
Cut
A flawed but still fascinating Japanese film by Iranian director Amir Naderi: in order to pay off the debts of his recently murdered brother a Tokyo cinephile, who organizes guerilla screenings of classics on the rooftop of his apartment house, becomes the punching bag for a yakuza gang. Highly repetitive and hard to stomach, "Cut" is way too long, but still impresses as a solid work by a maverick director.
