Stray Dog

Movie • 1949 • Film Noir  

Report
A bad day gets worse for young detective Murakami when a pickpocket steals his gun on a hot, crowded bus. Desperate to right the wrong, he goes undercover, scavenging Tokyo’s sweltering streets for the stray dog whose desperation has led him to a life of crime. With each step, cop and criminal’s lives become more intertwined and the investigation becomes an examination of Murakami’s own dark side.

vaguely. There's a pretty long montage of a cop tailing a suspect, as well as mentions of a character following another, but that's the extent.

by American/western standards, yes. A mother slaps her adult daughter and treats her more harshly than is acceptable in western culture.

There is a (vague) description of a cat being intentionally stepped on, with the sound of a meowing(hungrily though, not really yowling in pain) cat played over it.
