What Kids Return is
You loaf in Matsumoto, pulling schoolyard shakedowns. But expulsion arrives, and life forks: boxing gym or gangland. Shinji jabs; Masaru menaces. Soon enough, though, their choices land differently. Kitano's camera finds a quiet beauty in the banality of their downbeat destinies. It lingers.
