I haven't seen that many Japanese drama films , but the few that I have seen I really enjoy. These are a couple that I have seen that I enjoyed and wonder if there are others similar to it or at least really good Japanese drama films that would be a good recommendation

Dreams by Akira Kurosawa

Theres too many to count. During the 50s and 60s especially Japan put out so many of my favorite films. Akira Kurosawa, and Masaki Kobayashi are like my top directors. I also love the films Woman in the Dunes, Funeral Parade of Roses, and Shura.

Last year, I had watched Shoplifters (Manbiki Kazoku) and I thought it was pretty good. I also finally got around to watching Another Heaven (2000) and I REALLY liked that one. Surprisingly, the plot ended up reminding me of Saya no Uta. I also think Cure (1999) is also great if you haven't watched that one. Japanese movies, particularly darker ones, have an atmosphere that you can't find too often.
