If you loved L'Impasse de l'amour et de la haine, try Cinq femmes autour d'Utamaro
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 Kenji Mizoguchi, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to L'Impasse de l'amour et de la haine, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Cinq femmes autour d'Utamaro is
All About Eve with woodblock prints. An acclaimed 18th-century artist is celebrated and harassed for depicting the beauties of the pleasure district. Mizoguchi's biopic is a gorgeous rebuke to wartime repression.
