If you loved Sed de amor (Thirst for love), try I Am Waiting
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Koreyoshi Kurahara, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sed de amor (Thirst for love), the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What I Am Waiting is
Yokosuka. Night. A lone neon sign sputters. Ex-pug reluctantly drawn into a demimonde: a hostess, a gangster's moll. She yearns to flee the yakuza's grasp. He is her only option. An early, brutal Nikkatsu Noir.
