Graveyard of Honor
A look at the life of renegade yakuza Rikio Ishikawa, particularly the years 1946 to1950, when his violent antics get him in conflict with his own clan, the Kawada, and later with his protector's clan, the Kozaburo Imai. He can rely on Chieko, a young Tokyo courtesan who provides him with refuge during these years. He's exiled to Osaka, where he develops a drug addiction. Throughout it all, he manages to keep both his friends and foes on edge with his erratic conduct-and he appears indestructible.
