The Crimson Kimono is a 1959 Film Noir movie directed by Samuel Fuller. The film stars James Shigeta, Glenn Corbett and Victoria Shaw.It featured several ahead-of-its-time ideas about race and society's perception of race, a thematic and stylistic trademark of Fuller. The film is essentially about two cops, friends and Korean War veterans, Detective Joe Kojaku (James Shigeta) and Detective Sgt. Charlie Bancroft (Glenn Corbett), who attempt to solve the murder of a local entertainer. A love triangle soon develops between a key witness, Christine Downes (Victoria Shaw), and the two principal leads.
