If you loved Sabu, try Blues Harp

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 Takashi Miike, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sabu, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Blues Harp is

Takashi Miike directs, so you already know this is not your grandma's musical. Kenji, a young yakuza, finds his career ambitions complicated by a tender friendship with Chuji, a blues harmonica player in deep with the competition. It's sweet until the bullets start flying, which, of course, they do.
