If you loved The Flower and the Angry Waves, try Tokyo Drifter

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 Seijun Suzuki, and they both carry the neon soaked, playful mood tags, and they sit in Action / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Flower and the Angry Waves, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tokyo Drifter is

Rainy Tokyo streets at dusk, a saxophone wails, a crumpled cigarette pack lies abandoned. A former yakuza operative walks alone, rival gangs closing in. Seijun Suzuki directs with kinetic flair.
