If you loved The Cinderella Addiction, try Dragnet Girl
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 Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Cinderella Addiction, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Dragnet Girl is
Ozu does his version of a gangster picture, which is to say, not very gangsterish. A yakuza tough falls for a virginal office worker, much to the chagrin of his gun moll. It's less about the crime than the emotional havoc wreaked.
