If you loved Giants and Toys, try Love for an Idiot

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 Yasuzō Masumura, and they both carry the outsider mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Giants and Toys, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Love for an Idiot is

The film marries social satire with domestic farce like a shotgun wedding. A factory engineer finds himself betrothed to a teenager who treats his affections like overtime pay. By the third reel the poor man is learning the hard way that love sometimes comes with a waiver.
