If you loved Empire of Passion, try Taboo
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 Nagisa Ōshima, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Empire of Passion, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Taboo is
Kyoto, 1865. Cherry blossoms and a distant drum. The dojo's newest recruit inflames repressed desires among his peers and superiors. Honor and jealousy become indistinguishable. Oshima's final film is a queer sword-fight worth unsheathing.
