2025-04-29 01:55:06 +0000 UTCObvs my favorite female-directed film of the last decade or so is Sweet Bean, which I've nominated for the spin wheel a couple times and recently persuaded Birdie to watch. I've only seen a couple other Naomi Kawase films besides that one, but her approach is uniquely gentle and plain letting you kinda forget you're actually watching a movie.
