If you loved Gonza the Spearman, try Assassination
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 Masahiro Shinoda, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Gonza the Spearman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Assassination is
Yojimbo meets All the King's Men. A wandering samurai is pulled into a political plot as Japan struggles with Western encroachment. Shinoda's black and white widescreen images elevate a familiar story.
