If you loved A Distant Cry from Spring, try My Sons
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to A Distant Cry from Spring, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What My Sons is
Tokyo’s romance factory hums by as a greenhorn clerk pines for a factory girl who speaks in silence. His jealousy of his brainy brother takes a backseat when both affection and paternal blessing arrive in the same package. The father’s approval feels like a consolation prize no one saw coming.
