If you loved The Lion Standing in the Wind, try For Love's Sake
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 Takashi Miike, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Lion Standing in the Wind, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What For Love's Sake is
Even a low-budget yakuza musical couldn’t resist star-crossed revenge and love at first sight. Desperate to repay a debt, shambolic teen Makoto tumbles into Tokyo’s red-light romance, colliding with the embarrassing purity of Ai and the stares of every interested party. At least the karaoke scenes forgot to judge the viewer.
