"There must have been a strain of corruption in Japanese politics at the time." http://illusionpodcast.blogspot.com/2015/06/episode-61-new-j-wave-part-one-here.html

There's a scene in this film where the two main characters kiss on a beach, as the waves rise and fall around them. I'm unsure whether or not this is a conscious echo of From Here to Eternity, but the effect is the same: a tearing down of the old guard, a rebellious cinema, one that does not concern itself with the staid rules of the past. Like Godard in France, Oshima made a cutting-edge movie about lovers who live fast and die young. It still feels hip and revolutionary today.

Ôshima perfectly captures the zeitgeist of disillusioned Japanese youth in the 1960s.

Juventude Desenfreada estreava há 60 anos no Japão. Cruel estória dos homens na verdade, não à toa o Oshima foi fazer um programa na TV japonesa dos anos 70 sobre mulheres vítimas de violência, aqui o abuso masculino é absolutamente constante. Box Obras-primas do Cinema Nagisa Oshima

Dense character drama doesn't really suit Oshima, but the colors were popping.

Some strikingly beautiful cinematography. Story is more concerned with theme than character even, which works for the most part. Couldn’t imagine a better title for this.
