If you loved La source thermale d'Akitsu, try Adieu clarté d'été
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Yoshishige Yoshida, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to La source thermale d'Akitsu, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What Adieu clarté d'été is
Yoshida gives it a go with Antonioni-style ennui. A Japanese professor and a troubled housewife embark on an affair while touring Europe. Their self-discovery is perhaps less interesting than the locations they discover.
