Unrelated, but kind of want to watch #Godzilla Minus One again.
Or, can anyone recommend another great movie about Japan after the war?

The Criterion channel is having a Seijun Suzuki showcase and we just just finished watching GATE OF FLESH from 1964 and my mind is blown. The Wikipedia plot description: "In an impoverished and burnt out Tokyo ghetto of post-World War II Japan, a band of prostitutes defend their territory, squatting in a bombed-out building." But that sounds much lighter than the film turns out to be! Highly recommended.
