If you loved The Flowers of Evil, try Azumi
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 Drama / Romance / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Flowers of Evil, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Azumi is
Mountains. Thirty years since the last battle. A single blade. Ten orphans raised as killers, trained to bring peace via stealth and murder. One young woman survives the brutal final test. Kitamura's manga adaptation is a blood-soaked, pre- Tarantino actioner.
