If you loved Hana-bi - Feuerblume, try Violent Cop
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 Takeshi Kitano, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Hana-bi - Feuerblume, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Violent Cop is
Port city. Night rain. A lit cigarette. A rogue policeman's methods are put to the test as he unravels a criminal network, confronting corruption and brutality at every turn. Kitano's early foray into crime cinema pulls no punches.
