If you loved Tales of a Golden Geisha, try Woman in Witness Protection
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 Jūzō Itami, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Tales of a Golden Geisha, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Woman in Witness Protection is
Tokyo streets at dusk, neon lights reflecting off wet pavement, a solitary car horn blares. Biwako, a middle-aged actress, hides behind a new identity. A dark comedy from Jūzō Itami.
