If you loved Sleepy Eyes of Death 1: The Chinese Jade, try Samurai Vendetta
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
Theysit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sleepy Eyes of Death 1: The Chinese Jade, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Samurai Vendetta is
You wander Edo-period Japan as a low-ranking retainer of Lord Asano when the vendetta erupts between his clan and the Kira family. Your own lord’s death splits the samurai into two camps you once drank with. A director of period films sidesteps purity, letting violence and regret move at walking pace until one side must choose between duty and friendship.
