If you loved A Certain Killer, try Zatoichi en general
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Kazuo Mori, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Certain Killer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zatoichi en general is
You wander Japan as a blind masseur, a kindly soul with a blade. You find a dying woman and deliver her child, but her last wish sends you searching for the father. The infant's aunt is then ensnared in a local extortion scheme. Mori's widescreen compositions show a poignant, wandering hero. One ponders the nature of obligation.
