If you loved The Only Son, try Record of a Tenement Gentleman
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 Yasujirō Ozu, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Only Son, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Record of a Tenement Gentleman is
The film follows a lost salaryman’s son as he drifts into Tokyo’s tenement world. An unlikely caretaker steps in to guide him, forcing a reluctant vendor to host the boy temporarily. What begins as a comedy drifts into gentle observation of transient connections.
