I did not care for the ending too much
(1959) Odd Obsession/ Kagi
(In Japanese with English subtitles)
PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER
Adapted from the novel by Jun'ichirô Tanizaki co-written and directed by Kon Ichikawa that has elder patient, Kenji (Ganjirô Nakamura) attempting to entice Dr. Kimura (Tatsuya Nakadai) to visit him more often for the purpose of him being aroused. Kenji does this by attempting to tempt Dr. Kimura by exposing his wife,Ikuko (Machiko Kyô) to him despite him going out with their only daughter, Toshiko (Junko Kanô). The ending was baffling and that I did not care for it despite it being faithful to the source material.
