Wayne left home because of an argument about pies. Cyril would like to machine gun the Royal family. Rupert and Laetitia Boothe- Brain play yuppie sex games, while deep in suburbia Valerie fails to arouse her husband Martin with a suggestion that he be Michael Douglas and she a virgin. Mrs Bender gets locked out of her house and is criticised by her neighbour for selfishly occupying a whole house in an increasingly fashionable area. And Cyril's girlfriend Shirley wants to start a family, but gets no encouragement from Cyril, who feels that the world should be spared more babies until everyone already here has a job, a place to live and enough to eat.
This disparate cast of characters swim in and out of each others lives against a background of London and its suburbs seamlessly orchestrated by director, Mike Leigh

Sultry icon, Reiko Ike, plays Ocho Inoshika, a 1920's Tokyo gambler and pickpocket. At a young age, Ocho witnesses the brutal murder of her father by local Yakuza. Ocho uses deadly swordplay and female sexuality to extract cold hearted revenge for her fathers death, in a bloody climax of sex and violence!
Sex and Fury transcends from iconic pop culture to the realms of genuine art in this tale of murder and revenge. Considered by many the best in the series of Pinky Violence films, expertly directed by Norifumi Suzuki.

Female Yakuza Tale is a follow up to the fantastic Sex & Fury.

With the old boss dead and the recent discovery of the drug lord's daughter missing, presumed murdered, all hell breaks lose.
This all ties nicely into Ocho's plan of dolling out some payback and soon an army of killer hookers unite against a common foe in truly spectacular delirious blend of sword play, sex, violence, and pop cinema!

Sympathy For The Devil was made at a time when the Rolling Stones were at the peak of their creative powers and Jean-Luc Godard, who after making some of the great films of the French New Wave had taken a revolutionary political direction with his filmmaking. For many people the main attraction of Sympathy For The Devil is seeing the band (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman) take a loose outline of the song and turn it into a stirring, fully realised creation.
