If you loved Afraid to Die, try The Blue Sky Maiden
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 Yasuzō Masumura, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Afraid to Die, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Blue Sky Maiden is
Apparently family secrets are best kept at the beach. Yuko is sent to the coastal regions to live with her grandmother. It's a coming of age story that somehow manages to be both lighthearted and dramatic.
