I liked In the Realm of the Senses. Even though it was basically two hours of two nymphos, I found it pretty compelling. Well acted and well shot. That one scene with the umbrellas in the rain is short but gorgeous. Oshima's pretty cool.

I recently watched Tropical Malady. Holy shit, I loved it! Not to be hyperbolic, but that second half was unlike anything I've ever seen. Too bad the current dvd release is kinda shitty. Hoping Criterion get their hands on it.
