약력
Kōichi Saitō (斎藤 耕一 Saitō Kōichi, 3 February 1929 – 28 November 2009) was a Japanese film director and photographer. Born in Tokyo, Saitō started studying at Rikkyo University but ended up graduating from the Tokyo College of Photography (currently Tokyo Polytechnic University). He was initially a movie stills photographer at Nikkatsu before launching his own production company, Saito Productions, and directing his first film, Tsubuyaki no Jō, "a low-budget, independent film with a visual flair that earned comparisons with Claude Lelouch and with Richard Lester’s Beatles films, including A Hard Day’s Night". Some of his first films were youth movies featuring Group Sounds music. He came to prominence in the early 1970s with a series of movies about young people escaping to or searching for their identity in the countryside. He won the best director award at the 1972 Mainichi Film Awards. His Tsugaru jongarabushi was selected the best film of 1973 in the Kinema Junpo poll of critics. Saitō continued directing into his seventies and also made some documentaries. He was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun (4th Class, Gold Rays with Rosette) in 2000.

The Homeless is a picaresque tale in the truest sense of the word. 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 with a childlike mind and serious problems with the yakuza. They help her escape from the mob-infested cathouse and decide to guide her on her quest for sunken contraband somewhere off the coast, whose location only she knows, but which the yakuza are very eager to learn about. It is a remake of the French film The Last Adventure (1967).

요코하마 항구를 배경으로 영원한 ‘작은 악마’ 카가 마리코의 매력을 완벽하게 필름에 담은, 극히 포토제닉한 롤리타 스토리. “남자를 기쁘게 하는 게 여자가 살아가는 보람이잖아요”, “파파는 있지만 누구랑 해도 OK예요”, “몸은 괜찮지만 키스는 안 돼요, 크리스찬이거든요” 등, 윤리와 논리를 뛰어넘은 마리코의 교태와 매력 앞에 남자들은 허망하게 함락된다. 다큐멘터리 터치의 카메라워크와 무성코미디 영화의 슬랩스틱을 연상시키는 추격 액션, 프레임 조작을 많이 이용한 시간 처리 등 시각적인 실험들 또한 가득하다. 이러한 형식적 실험은 누벨바그에 대한 ‘스승’ 나카히라의 회답으로 평가받기도 했다. 시리즈의 사령관 역으로 유명한 나카오 아키라의 젊은 날의 미청년 모습 또한 충격적이다.
