If you loved Minbo, or The Gentle Art of Japanese Extortion, try La inspectora
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 Jūzō Itami, and they sit in Comedy / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to Minbo, or The Gentle Art of Japanese Extortion, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What La inspectora is
Some professions are more glamorous on paper than in practice. An aggressive tax inspector locks horns with a slippery hotel magnate over creative accounting. Their war of forms becomes oddly pleasing in a grimace-inducing way.
