About The Homeless
Two inmates are simultaneously released from jail, but go their separate ways, only to cross paths again in the nearest brothel. There they make the acquaintance of a would-be prostitute. They help her escape and decide to guide her on her quest for sunken contraband somewhere off the coast.
Directed by Kōichi Saitō, The Homeless leans on a strong ensemble — Ken Takakura, Shintarō Katsu, Meiko Kaji — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1974.
