If you loved Ushijima the Loan Shark The Final, try Ushijima the Loan Shark
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 Masatoshi Yamaguchi, and they both carry the pitch black, raw mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ushijima the Loan Shark The Final, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ushijima the Loan Shark is
The Devil’s Advocate meets Salaryman noir. A woman inherits her mother’s debt and starts working at a hostess café to pay it off, while a slick young executive borrows big from the same loan shark to fund his corporate climb. Takayuki Yamada plays cold calculation in a suit, 2012’s answer to capitalist hunger with no moral off-ramp.
