If you loved Whirlwind, try The Life of Matsu the Untamed
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 Hiroshi Inagaki, and they sit in Action / Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to Whirlwind, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Life of Matsu the Untamed is
You haul a rickshaw and spread cheer around town. You befriend a sick young boy and join his family's service. But fate has other plans for you. Inagaki's early work shows the formal grace he'd later bring to samurai films. The film leaves one pondering class and duty.
