Anime Month continues!
I was, once again, more serious with this review than normal, but I did make a few more jokes when it seemed apporiate. I wanted be more funny, but this movie was too serious for me to make many jokes. It is, without a doubt, probably now in my Top 20 Best Movies I have ever seen.
I can't say if it is faithful to the source material of the manga or original film, but it sure succeds as a movie. You got to see this at least once. Enjoy!

Glad you like the film, it certainly had an impact on me.
I tracked down the soundtrack years ago, hoping it had the Ray Charles tune on it. It doesn't, but it has a bunch of great jazzy numbers, mixed in with some off-the-wall Japanese scoring. Worth tracking down.
