Her Brother

Rupan over at Kuzu has reviewed Kon Ichikawa's forgotten 1960 drama, Her Brother.

Her Brother is a nice accompanying piece to Mikio Naruse's When a Woman Ascends the Stairs, released the same year. The former explores female roles in the family while the latter explores their roles within society; both of them excellent studies of this subject.

Kuzu's got a trailer up as well.
