If you loved Casting Blossoms to the Sky, try Labyrinth of Cinema
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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Fantasy / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Casting Blossoms to the Sky, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What Labyrinth of Cinema is
You settle in for a last picture show at your favorite haunt. But a storm knocks you into the celluloid itself. Obayashi's final film is a love letter, and a rambling elegy, for what cinema can conjure.
