Another Lonely Hitman (新・悲しきヒットマン, Shin kanashiki hittoman) is a Japanese yakuza film directed by Rokurō Mochizuki starring Ryo Ishibashi and Asami Sawaki, who was making her film debut. The film was based on a novel by Yukio Yamanouchi who also appears as an actor in the film.[1][2] The Japanese title of the film begins with the character 新, shin (new), to distinguish this movie from a 1989 film 悲しきヒットマン (Lonely or Sad Hitman), also based on a novel by Yamanouchi but unrelated in plot.[2]
