I gotta give a hearty thank you to Patton Oswalt for putting
A Colt is My Passport on my radar. A 1967 yakuza-noir movie from director Takashi Nomura,
Passport was heavily praised by Patton Oswalt in his Adventures in Moviegoing interview on the Criterion Channel. He called it the kind of movie that produces moments so cool one can't help but shout out "YEAH!" when they occur. Turns out, Oswalt, that cinematic devotee, was right on the money.
A Colt is My Passport is an extremely interesting yarn, particularly in terms of seeing how it fuses together so many distinct cinematic influences.
