If you loved Walk Cheerfully, try La mujer de esa noche
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 Yasujirō Ozu, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Walk Cheerfully, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What La mujer de esa noche is
You toil in hardscrabble Tokyo. Your daughter succumbs to sickness, and you steal to pay for her care, but a detective knows your face. Ozu lingers on domestic objects. The film quietly considers desperation.
