Revolver — Blue Spring
2003 · 1h 37m
country: Japan
Osamu (Tamaki Hiroshi), a member of the “Ero Supremacy Club,” Kōji (Sato Ryuta), the quiet Biology Club member, and Tatsutoshi (Moriyama Mirai), the solitary Soccer Club member, come across a map one day. Following its markings, they discover a real handgun and three bullets. With the weapon in hand, the three hatch a plan to search for some “truly amazing thing”… Based on the comic Revolver by Maro Naruse & Taiyo Matsumoto, director Takeshi Watanabe (Chaka 2) delivers a youth drama that’s raw, comical, and tinged with melancholy. Following the success of the film Blue Spring (also from Matsumoto’s work), this original video production was created, and in fact, it carries an even stronger Matsumoto flavor. The three leads each stand out vividly, their personalities brought to life in a way that makes this a strangely endearing and memorable gem.
