If you loved Osaka Elegy, try The 47 Ronin
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 Kenji Mizoguchi, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Osaka Elegy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The 47 Ronin is
Seven Samurai without swordplay. A feudal lord is forced to commit ritual suicide after drawing his sword in the shogun's court. His now masterless samurai vow revenge, but their true goal is restoring their clan's honor. Mizoguchi finds the tragedy in duty.
