Aro Recommended Warm Water Under a Red Bridge

 

Japan 2001, 120 minutes
Dir. Shohei Imamura
In Japanese with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / Sex

 

Aroview: Nourishing sex fable in which Japanese everyman Koji Yakusho, down and out after losing his wife and job, discovers the joys of making love to a woman with an abundance of ‘bodily fluid’ and a tingle to untangle…

The masterful Shohei Imamura’s last and most delicious film, this combines romantic whimsy and a wonderful, affirmative embrace of human sexuality through the director’s requisite loner protagonist. Lacks the prickly satire and witticisms of Imamura’s best work, yet that’s beside the point when a geyser-strength orgasm is the film’s main attraction!
