I'm looking for good, entertaining Japanese films that represent a (relatively) accurate depiction of modern-day Japan. By modern let's say... Showa 55 (1980) through the Heisei era up to current date.
I'm not looking for films dealing with any other time frame, so no Kurosawa samurai epics or post-war examinations please. I'm really interested in films dealing with issues in modern-day Japanese life. These don't have to be profoundly philosophical films or anything; an example of the type of film I'd like to see more of is "Shall We Dance?"
So if you have any recommendations for this type of movie, or good modern Japanese directors, please share! Thanks!
