Recently receiving top awards at the Palm Springs International ShortFest, winning the Best of the Festival Award, “The Old Young Crow” cemented its rather successful festival run this year, as it screened all over the world netting a number of accolades
“The Old Young Crow” review is part of the Submit Your Film Initiative
The movie begins with a rather impressive frame, where we watch a man (just his hands actually) placing a diary of sorts on a table, before beginning his narration of how his family moved from Iran to Tokyo, after his mother passed. The pages of the diary soon come alive on screen, presenting images drawn through minimal animation, with the sound connecting the images with the narration. Evidently, the images are the first impressions of Tokyo, with the focus soon changing to food, through images of various bento.

After “Carmen from Kawachi” had been one more unsuccessful attempt of production company Nikkatsu to get director Seijun Suzuki in line with the kind of movies they wanted him to make, they decided to reduce his budget even further for his next feature. In the wrong hands, “Tokyo Drifter” probably would have been just another gangster flick which the industry had produced a thousand times, but Suzuki created something truly special, widely regarded as one of his most interesting and visually arresting works. Instead of feeling ´restricted by the lack of financial support, the director relied on his skill of making ends meet and sticking to his creative vision, resulting in a much more abstract work which also fits perfectly in the age of pop culture.
