Quite exceptional. This was my first Imamura and I am really excited about checking out the rest of his oeuvre. This film was very savage, but punctuated with beauty and humanity. Yes, humanity. A masterpiece.

Shakespearean. Not a false note, not a slack moment. Sumiko Sakamoto carries the movie on her back, as her character carries her family on her back. But each character is richly drawn, idiosyncratic, odd and human. There's even a goofy subplot to balance the darkness of mob action, murder and the fulcrum of the film --- the abandonment of the elderly at the top of a mountain. After you've watched this movie, you know you've been somewhere.

Quite hard to watch, too naturalistic and dark, but anyway worth to put in the recommended list!

A masterpiece of the human condition...[but] below the very peak of Imamura's filmmaking powers.
