The last Japanese movie you watched~!!(LIKED IT OR NOT)

Hot Gimmick -  hated it

A Liar and a Broken Girl 9/10

Watashi no Miteiru Sekai ga Subete 
Portrayal of the inconsiderate & self-serving behavior of a human being can bring closure to their precious connections.

I watched As Long As We Both Shall Live on the planed in June. I liked it. I'm watching the anime, My Happy Marriage, on Netflix USA now, but I think it doesn't cover everything the movie did. I'm guessing there will be a second season.

Revenge (1964) - the little brother of Harakiri (1962), the same critique of the bushido system. What a great year of the japanese cinema it was, this was maybe the fifth or the sixth movie that I loved from 1964.

Episode 3 of "My Universe" (Thailand, 2023) a.k.a. episode 1 of "Marry Go Round".

Shiawase no Masukatto
Average slice of life. But, Fukumoto Riko's smile is refreshing as they said in the film, true.

Tokyo Tower: Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad (2007) - story of the relationship between a mother and her son throughout their lifes, with lead role played by the wonderful Kirin Kiki.  It is such a shame that Yayako Uchida, who was playing the young mother, hasn't had roles in more movies. I saw her only in The Wandering Moon  beside this film and she had such a nice face and expressing eyes. She somehow reminds me of my grandmother even though she is not even half of her age :).

P.S: I have just realized this site isn't even featuring Yayako Uchida among the cast of the film  even though she is playing one of the main roles. WTF! I tried to add her to the cast but she is not shown on the page of the movie.
