If you loved L'Empire de la passion, try Tabou
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Nagisa Ōshima, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to L'Empire de la passion, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Tabou is
Kyoto, 1865. Cherry blossoms and a distant drum. The dojo's newest recruit inflames repressed desires among his peers and superiors. Honor and jealousy become indistinguishable. Oshima's final film is a queer sword-fight worth unsheathing.
