If you loved River's Edge, try Aroused by Gymnopedies
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 Isao Yukisada, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to River's Edge, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What Aroused by Gymnopedies is
Irma Vep without vampires. A once-successful director of soft-core films drifts through life, detached from his family but strangely coddled by a series of women. A minor key character study of a man coasting on past glories.
