That was Taste of Tea, I think... but I dunno... I'm lazy too. ha
Either way they're all extremely well-made films.
I just really like Ishii's stuff because it's so explosive and lively. The editing and choice of framing is always really neat, and all of his films have a very quirky art design - but more like playful and fun quirky, and not poop-on-my-upper-lip Jim Jarmusch quirky. He's not afraid to change mediums, or significantly alter his way of telling a story throughout a film whenever he pleases. It's some really neat stuff, and is pretty unique from any director I've ever seen. It's really inspiring, and reminds me that every second of a film should be like candy in one way or another.
