If you loved The Blue Sky Maiden, try Love for an Idiot
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 Yasuzō Masumura, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Blue Sky Maiden, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Love for an Idiot is
The film marries social satire with domestic farce like a shotgun wedding. A factory engineer finds himself betrothed to a teenager who treats his affections like overtime pay. By the third reel the poor man is learning the hard way that love sometimes comes with a waiver.
