If you loved A Certain Killer, try Zatoichi at Large
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Kazuo Mori, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Certain Killer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zatoichi at Large is
You wander Japan as a blind masseur, a kindly soul with a blade. You find a dying woman and deliver her child, but her last wish sends you searching for the father. The infant's aunt is then ensnared in a local extortion scheme. Mori's widescreen compositions show a poignant, wandering hero. One ponders the nature of obligation.
