If you loved Woman in Witness Protection, try Tales of a Golden Geisha

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 Jūzō Itami, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Woman in Witness Protection, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tales of a Golden Geisha is

Itami directs, in what feels like, a minor key. A kindly geisha finds herself bringing good fortune to the parade of dubious men sharing her bed. It is a gentle reminder that not every story needs world-shaking stakes.
