If you loved Takeshis', try Kikujiro
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 Takeshi Kitano, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Takeshis', the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Kikujiro is
Kikujiro sets out to help a young boy find his mother. Masao's determination leads him on a journey with the loudmouthed Kikujiro. It's a quirky trip that somehow works.
