If you loved Crows Zero II, try The Bird People in China
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 Takashi Miike, and they sit in Adventure / Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Crows Zero II, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Bird People in China is
Takashi Miike takes a rare detour into gentle fantasy. A businessman travels to China to inspect a jade mine, joined by a sentimental yakuza. Their guide leads them to a remote village of people who believe they can fly. It's no *Audition*.
