If you loved Zatôichi's Conspiracy, try Zatôichi's Cane Sword
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 Kimiyoshi Yasuda, and they sit in Action / Adventure / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Zatôichi's Conspiracy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zatôichi's Cane Sword is
You arrive in Tonda, a town cowed by corruption. You win a small fortune at the gambling house. But local thugs want you gone. Senzo the blacksmith recognizes your cane sword. He says it will soon fail. Director Yasuda finds a stark poetry in the inevitable.
