Thursday, Dec. 29 - I Am Waiting

Ore wa matteru ze (1957)

On a dark night, Jôji (Yujiro ishihara) a former boxer, saves Saeko (Mie Kitahara), a beautiful, suicidal hostess. They live and work together at a restaurant where they begin to fall in love, struggling to escape from their dark pasts. Jôji deals with his failure as a boxer, shamed of having been barred from the ring. Saeko hopes to hide from gangsters who have forced her to work at their cabaret.[5]

They both find their source of support in their sole dreams: he wishes to Brazil to join his brother on a ranch, and she dreams of finding love. Pushed by gangsters, they learn that dreams are easily crushed.
