If you loved Brother, try Sonatine
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Takeshi Kitano, and they sit in Crime / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Brother, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Sonatine is
Okinawa. Summer heat, buzzing flies. A yakuza lieutenant arrives from Tokyo, ordered to mediate a dispute. Soon ambushed, his crew retreats to the shore. Days of dangerous idleness follow. Kitano's peculiar crime film mixes violence with childish games.
