Yaji and Kita: Yasuda's Rescue
Yaji and Kita: Yasuda's Rescue is a 1927 black and white Japanese silent film directed by Tomiyasu Ikeda.[1] This comedy film showcases the comic talent of Denjiro Okochi, which contrasts markedly with his heroic performance in Oatsurae Jirokichi Koshi. The humorous exchanges with Goro Kawabe, his senior at Nikkatsu, can be priceless, with the expressions and movements of the two goofy characters making for pure, hilarious slapstick comedy. A 15-minute remnant of the film was released on DVD by Digital Meme with benshi accompaniment by Midori Sawato and Ryubi Kato.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film exists at its own rhythm. Doesn't rush the viewer, doesn't suggest how to react — trusts its own material.
If the genre speaks to you — worth watching. If not — not the most obvious choice, but a pleasant surprise isn't impossible.
For those who appreciate genre cinema made with intelligence and without snobbery.
Director: Tomiyasu Ikeda
