If you loved L'Étrange Obsession, try La Vengeance d'un acteur
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 Kon Ichikawa, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to L'Étrange Obsession, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What La Vengeance d'un acteur is
Hamlet without soliloquies. A celebrated onnagata performer discovers the men who destroyed his family. Ichikawa's crisp widescreen compositions elevate a classic revenge plot, filtered through the artifice of kabuki.
