If you loved Brother and Sister, try Moment of Terror

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Mikio Naruse, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Brother and Sister, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Moment of Terror is

You grieve your son's hit-and-run death, a wealthy woman the culprit. But you then scheme for revenge, taking on a false identity to become a maid in her household. Naruse's late-career color film is a hushed story of class resentment.
