1960·65 min·Dir. Koreyoshi Kurahara·★ 7.3
CrimeDramaThriller
Koreyoshi Kurahara's ingeniously plotted, pocket-size noir concerns the intertwined fates of a desperate bank manager, blackmailed for book-cooking, and his resentful but timid underling, passed over for a promotion. The marvelously moody Intimidation is an elegantly stripped-down and carefully paced crime drama.
Ranked by shared directors, cast, themes, genre, and era — not just generic recommendations.
