Genius, so much fiction tells us, is the flip side of madness. In this busy, woozy thriller, a psychotic park dweller known as the Caveman (Samuel L. Jackson) is afflicted with "brain typhoons" and visions of "moth-seraphs."

He has been both the archetypal Japanese macho man?the rebel, the outlaw, the yakuza?while also playing the subversive clown prince version of all those cherished tough guys. Those phoned-in TV appearances are just the flip side of the stylized cinematic tough guy. Beat plays off the public's awareness of who he is. That farcical gangster on the set of low-budget TV shows is all the more lovable because he's the deadly gangster of big budget glossy feature films. In Japan, where...
