If you loved Confessions Among Actresses, try Impasse
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 Yoshishige Yoshida, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Confessions Among Actresses, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Impasse is
Persona without Bergman. A couple's happiness cracks when the wife fixates on the anonymous sperm donor who fathered their child. Yoshida's early art-house film reflects the anxieties of Japan's booming 1960s.
