Boy (1969) "少年" directed by Nagisa Oshima

 This is the most "accessible" of Oshima's work and was my introduction to the Japanese New Wave proper. Osima's work totally destroys the line between New Wave and Exploitation cinema, but this is his most tamed work. This is a film about a Japanese couple that fakes car accidents to scam people and get their son, the titular "Boy", in on the job. It is a crazy look and commentary on the paradoxes of Japanese families at this time using an actual incident as the model. While this film is no 400 Blows, it is decent for what it is.
