Five films directed by Kinji Fukasaku and starring Bunta Sugawara as Shozo Hirono (a character based on Minō) were produced between 1973 and 1974. They were critically and commercially successful and popularized the subgenre of yakuza film called Jitsuroku eiga, which are often based on true stories.
Bunta Sugawara is as close as the Japanese film industry has ever come to Clint Eastwood. As did Eastwood with Dirty Harry, Sugawara embodied a new antihero for the 1970s and redefined cool. Sugawara's anti-heroes were not hard-nosed cops, but gangsters whose only code was survival.
