If you loved Mother, try A Wanderer's Notebook
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 Mikio Naruse, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mother, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Wanderer's Notebook is
Womanhood without security. A writer in old Japan bounces between exploitative lovers and soul-killing jobs. Hideko Takamine, always superb, elevates this familiar story of artistic struggle.
