If you loved Sazen Tange and The Secret of the Urn, try Samurai Wolf

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 Hideo Gosha, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Action / Adventure / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sazen Tange and The Secret of the Urn, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Samurai Wolf is

You wander into a village where a blind woman fears for her life. A stray samurai offers her sword. Then another does too, and the clash of codes begins. Hideo Gosha frames honor as a blade without a grip.
