If you loved Another Lonely Hitman, try Onibi: The Fire Within
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 Rokurō Mochizuki, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Another Lonely Hitman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Onibi: The Fire Within is
You're an ex-hitman, sprung from prison and hoping to stay out of trouble. But the new yakuza are soft, and your old talents are still sharp. When you fall for a pianist, her beauty sparks a fire. But the flame could burn everything to ash. Mochizuki's background informs the film's compressed violence, making space for a tender romance.
