If you loved Manji, try Hanzo the Razor: The Snare
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 Yasuzō Masumura, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Manji, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hanzo the Razor: The Snare is
You're a cop in Edo-era Japan, enforcing laws against the powerful. But a corrupt treasurer wants you gone. Masumura's jidaigeki subverts genre expectations. It leaves a cynical aftertaste.
