If you loved Zatoichi's Vengeance, try Zatoichi at Large
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
Theysit in Action / Adventure / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Zatoichi's Vengeance, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zatoichi at Large is
You wander Japan as a blind masseur, a kindly soul with a blade. You find a dying woman and deliver her child, but her last wish sends you searching for the father. The infant's aunt is then ensnared in a local extortion scheme. Mori's widescreen compositions show a poignant, wandering hero. One ponders the nature of obligation.
