Short but realistic fight, thanks
That was excellent! And I too thought it was extremely realistic, but as usual for movie catfights, way too short!
Check out a my new topic for a very similar fight, but much longer. Geisha catfight.
It seems I chose wisely by wanting to check this one out after the HK movie. One reason being that there exists several movies in the world, especially foreign ones, that have as many titles as they had distributors. As I mentioned in the other topic, the French New Wave did not go unnoticed, and if you stick around for after the fight, you can see that the Japanese have been more daring in this regard, what with hostess lady of a presumed nearby nightclub just flashing her leg like that.
The next scene I where I continued watching, it was a bit of heavy-handed symbolism with the street dog looking rest to eat, a dead ringer for the social status many of these citizens had to inhabit at the time. Though Japan emerged an economic power under Kennedy's reign, it wasn't until 1962 that Tokyo markets had seen daily fresh fruit.
A very similar economic hardship can be seen in the movie, a title of which I had sadly forgotten, where the pearl diving women get into a mass brawl. These were pretty much the last Japanese movies to feature realistic female fights after the 1970s' pinku films took over, and the girl gang boss fights steered the genre into the sexual, not just realistic.
I've always fantasized about Japanese pearl divers fighting underwater. I wish i could find something like that.

Again thank you for your insight. Since you brought up "pinky" if you have the opportunity buy the Pinky Violence collection and listen to the commentaries, they are not only insightful but but humorous.

I can't remember the title but there is an old movie with such a fight, I believe Black Net might have been in the title. It came out about 1959 the year Girl Divers and Spook Mansion came out.

Sadly that happens at times.
The title is Cash Calls Hell (1966) directed by Hideo Gosha.
Check out this website, it contains his name in kanji, if you copy and paste into a Google search you should get some pretty good hits.

Three Outlaw Samurai had a semi-catfight between capturing and hostage,
Onimasa has an extremely hot slap fight between two women.
Yakuza Wives had a nasty catfight between two sisters.
But really watch ny film of his you can, he was a great director.
Sword of the Beast (no catfight) is one of my favorites.
The Wolves is another good one, no catfight but two lesbian assassins that were deadly to anyone, male or female.
Darn. Too late. It's been pulled.
