Takashi Nomura
Takashi Nomura is a Japanese film director for studios including Nikkatsu. The Criterion Collection described him as a "prominent, stylistically daring director".
While on contract with Nikkatsu, Nomura directed films such as The Quick Draw Kid.
He is perhaps best known for A Colt Is My Passport, influenced by French New Wave filmmakers such as Jean-Pierre Melville, and by Sergio Leone-style Westerns. Nomura's use of still shots in the opening sequence has been compared to manga art techniques.Film
