Mr.Nagaharu Yodogawa adored "Boiling Point" and give his honorable award for...

"I chose this movie "Boiling Point" as the Yodogawa Award


in magazine "RoadShow(possibly about movie in Japan)"


Thus, as that explained, I like this movie so much.


Takeshi Kitano...he is the "harvest" of Japanese movies


such as...Akira Kurosawa.


Moreover, he is my hope...for the future of movies."



Mr.Yodogawa watched "Boiling Point" as the second movie of Kitano.


He expounded the movie as


"the explosion of crazy and too much exposed adolescence...with


innocence and viciousness..."



He also impressed...or lost his words by some scenes from


Okinawa with Bird Paradise...the posh flowers which were


planted, culled like sugar cane and


used to hide the machine guns (to attack the rivals) in the movie...


Those scenes represented and expressed the attitude


and arrogance of Takeshi Kitano as movie director...for


audience to just watch the "movie"...arrogantly...


as Yodogawa said.



Finally, he cited "Trainspotting", the British movie about


drugs and reckless young people...that included some


amazing scenes...for instance, the toilet scene that someone enter


the hole of stool...to explicate that Boiling Point already


done those kind of things before...



Yodogawa averred that Takeshi has modern and arrogant perceptions and senses


for movie... "This is the second impact of Takeshi for me...impressive"
