If you loved The Funeral, try Supermarket Woman
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 Jūzō Itami, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Funeral, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
playful
What Supermarket Woman is
Itami directs this one like a lark, a mid-career sidestep. An aggressively cheerful woman helps a listless grocer save his failing supermarket. It's a light satire that seems happy simply to exist.
