: Hey folks -
: This is semi-off topic, but if there's anyone out there besides myself who likes Japanese movies, not necessarily revolving around the samurai, I'd have to recommend Tampopo. It's really hard to describe, but after you watch it, you'll have a much better appreciation of a bowl of ramen.
Dear Readers,
Did you enjoy:
Sonatine (gangsters)
Swallowtail Butterfly (unwanted immigrants)
The Mystery of Rampo (Whoa!)
The Eel (Kills his wife...)
The Ring 1&2 (Well, that is a deep subject.)
Uzumaki ( You will never look at vortexes the same way.)
Any Sonny Chiba (like Golgo 13 Kowloon Assignment)
Any Kurosawa (like Dreams, Derzuusala, or Rhapsody in August...)
What are some more good ones?
Best wishes to all,
go
ps Owl's Castle and 47 Ronin are great too!
pps What are the top 20 samurai movies?
