The Yakuza

(1974)Directed by Sydney Pollack112 min · RCrime, Drama, Thriller
“A man never forgets. A man pays his debts.”

A deal between an American businessman and a Yakuza boss named Tono ends with the businessman's daughter taken, and no one will say why. Harry Kilmer (Robert Mitchum), a retired private eye, flies to Japan at his old friend's request, a country he left decades ago and no longer reads. Pollack sends him through a world of obligation and debt, where a favor from one man to another outweighs any law.
