"Crazed Fruit" marks a significant milestone in Nikkatsu’s movie making history. Legendary actor, Yujiro Ishihara, tackles his first lead role in this groundbreaking Japanese film that was highly appraised by François Truffaut, an iconic figure in French cinema.
Natsuhisa (Yujiro Ishihara) and his brother, Haruji, were complete opposites of one another. Natsuhisa was flirtatious and had abundant experience with women. Haruji was a naive inexperienced teenager. A few days later, the brothers were cruising in a motorboat when they spotted a girl swimming nearby. It was Eri, Haruji’s love at first sight. Haruji mustered up courage to speak with her, only to find that she was a married woman.
