If you loved Roaring Fire, try Red Peony Gambler: Gambler's Obligation

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 Norifumi Suzuki, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Roaring Fire, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Red Peony Gambler: Gambler's Obligation is

You're a wandering gambler who accepts shelter from a silk-farming yakuza. But a rival gang murders your benefactor, so you protect his children. Suzuki's camera understands feminine obligation. The film lingers in blood-soaked snow. What remains is the debt.
