If you loved The Last Princess, try The Floating Castle
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 Shinji Higuchi, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Last Princess, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Floating Castle is
A historical epic that knows it's also a bit silly. A small garrison within Oshi Castle must defend against the overwhelming force of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's army in 1590. It's a film that asks how much can be achieved with a very small army and a very big moat.
