Casebook of Dandy Sashichi: Furisode Mansion (1960)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

The fourth episode of the popular detective series starring Tomisaburō Wakayama. Featuring mysterious ronin, enigmatic bon vivants, and melancholic daughter geishas, as they become entangled in a series of strange deaths occurring one after another at the Furisode Mansion. With the astute reasoning and Hōzen-ryū stick technique of the puppet showman Sakichi of Kanda Otamagaike, the threads of the mystery are gradually unraveled.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
