If you loved Dragnet Girl, try That Night's Wife
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 Yasujirō Ozu, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dragnet Girl, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What That Night's Wife is
You toil in hardscrabble Tokyo. Your daughter succumbs to sickness, and you steal to pay for her care, but a detective knows your face. Ozu lingers on domestic objects. The film quietly considers desperation.
