Postman Blues

Postman Blues (ポストマン・ブルース, Posutoman Burūsu) is a 1997 Japanese criminal action comedy-drama film directed and written by Hiroyuki Tanaka under the name Sabu.

The film features Shin'ichi Tsutsumi, Keisuke Horibe, Ren Ohsugi and Kyōko Tōyama in the lead roles.

On reaching home, Sawaki finds a suicide note in his bag written by a cancer patient to her aunt.

Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian called the film a "chaotic Yakuza thriller, which has a lot of energy and pace, but is let down by uncertain, and slightly callow, undertones of comic sentimentality".

[6] French critics said that "Postman Blues could have been an intelligent extension of his first film that surprised many people".
