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 both carry the raw mood tag, 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.
