If you loved A Taxing Woman, try The Funeral
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 Jūzō Itami, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Taxing Woman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Funeral is
Itami trains his satirical eye on the rituals of death. A family gathers for a traditional Japanese funeral after the sudden passing of its patriarch. What follows is a send-up of social expectations, with just a touch of familial warmth.
