If you loved Why Not?, try Intentions of Murder
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 Shōhei Imamura, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Why Not?, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Intentions of Murder is
Double Indemnity meets Tokyo noir. A librarian's wife is harassed by a young man. It delivers 60s Japanese social commentary.
