Here’s one for the fetish fans. Apparently (I can’t speak from personal experience) it is a popular fantasy to grope young women on the crowded Japanese commuter trains. They may or may not enjoy this, but in this film they seem happy to be groped and fingered by dirty old men. The story revolves around this fetish. There are in fact quite a few stories in the Groper Train series by director Yojiro Takita.

A fabulous black pearl was stolen from China during the Japanese occupation and last turned up in Japan, brought home by the sole survivor of an Army raiding team. He dies in the throes of sex with his attractive wife and his last words are “Pussy Picture”. A Pussy Picture is made by inking a woman’s private parts then pressing paper onto them. He was a collector of these pictures but following a fire he only has half of one picture left. This seems to be the picture he was referring to. The remnant looks a little like a map. Could it show where the Black Pearl is hidden?

The picture was taken from his niece, so the wife and her stepson must find the missing niece and get the rest of the picture. They hire a private detective to make Pussy Pictures of as many women on the Groper Train as possible, hoping to find the niece and get the rest of the picture. Against all the odds this works, but the completed picture still tells them nothing. They hire a TV mystery solver to try to unravel the picture’s meaning.

The stepson is murdered in his room one night and the private detective accuses the wife of his murder, showing how it could have been done. He offers to keep quiet in return for the Pearl, which he now thinks he can find. Unfortunately the mystery solver has been there first and is now proudly wearing the Pearl on a ring. How do they get the Pearl away from him?

They devise a cunning plan based on his habit of fingering women on the Groper Train. Will it work? Can we stop laughing long enough to find out?

Search For The Black Pearl is not meant to be serious drama, surely? Still, it has some genuinely funny moments. The sex scenes are tasteful and the women are attractive and seem to be enjoying themselves. It’s a silly, happy little romp and even if you aren’t into this sort of fetish it’s good for a laugh.
