...plus movies about Japan.

I guess that the Godzilla (and other science-fiction monster movies) are the favorite of many.

I just finished Sakuran,

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0794338

about a young woman in a brothel during the Edo period.

Tampopo is very good.

Lost in Translation is a must see.

Some people like Teahouse of the August Moon (set in Okinawa, and starring Marlon Brando), plus Sayonara, also starring Marlon Brando.

The Barbarian and the Geisha, starring John Wayne.

The Geisha Boy, starring Jerry Lewis, is hilarious.

Any other recommendations?
