A crime story (with strong elements of comedy) that pits a determined detective against a gang of pickpockets in Osaka. The detective (played by Keiju Kobayashi) and the leader of the gang (played by Norihei Miki) have an interesting wartime backstory together that fuels much of the story.
The Great Japanese Pick-Pocket Club was directed by Jun Fukuda.
The Great Japanese Pick-Pocket Club runs for 1h 35min, and was released in 1969.
