Oatsurae Jirôkichi kôshi Synopsis
The only completely preserved silent film directed by Daisuke Ito, this film relates the life of a legendary thief, Jirokichi the Rat in an exquisite original story and through the revolutionary use of dynamic intertitles. The skillful benshi narration featuring a mixture of Edo dialect and Kansai dialect is highly entertaining.

In Alberta, Canada, a Cornish emigrant unmasks a rustler posing as the girl's "blind" father.
"Oatsurae Jirôkichi kôshi" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Night Riders" offers its own unique cult appeal.
