If you loved The Tale of Genji, try The Life of Budori Gusuko
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 Gisaburō Sugii, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Animation / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Tale of Genji, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What The Life of Budori Gusuko is
Gusukō meets a grumpy professor. The orphaned meteorologist flees Japan’s dust-bowl 1920s only to join a tiny team trying to restart the rain by detonating a volcano. A measured fable about aimless youth and stubborn science.
