From the other Kitano films I’ve seen, it seems he really likes to show the mundanity of things, but with this he really went all out. Its not just slow dialogue, its the dead expressions people make while waiting for the other to stop talking. There wasn’t even any music.
While the film is overall much more mundane, Kitano’s character is a lot more active than in other films. He does a great job at making you feel as uncomfortable as possible in every scene he’s in.
