ANTS WITHOUT UMBRELLA (Japanese Movie)
I will give a short overview of the story first. There was an author who is known for writing sci-fi stories where he became famous. Now for almost 2 years he experienced this what we call "writers block" where a writer can't write anymore. Now his editor-in-chief asked him to write a love story which is not of his genre and he found it difficult to do so. Five days left for him to submit the story to his boss but still he was not able to finish even one story.
One night somebody visited him which came out to be his childhood best friend. This friend gave him advises and ideas which enabled him to finish a story but the said story did not passed the standard of his boss. He write another story to the point where he can no longer differentiate what's real and what is not. He almost died in the process but was saved by his best friend because of this his boss asked him to take some rest. Still his friend encouraged him to never give up but he got angry to his friend for pestering him and asked his friend to leave.
One day he decided to visit his hometown and he reminisce the past. It was soon revealed through some flashbacks that his best friend fall in love with a guy and him (writer) as a friend tried to understand it but it never happened putting a distance in there friendship. He even think of committing suicide but he we saved by his friend.
When he returned to his hometown he met his first girlfriend and they had a chat. At the end of their conversation he mentioned that his best friend visited him days ago. The girl was shocked. She said how is it possible when he (writer's best friend) died more than 2 years ago . He was stunned upon hearing the revelations, and he then remembered that it was his best friend who became the reason why he decided to become a writer. At the end of the movies he was able to finish a good love story, using his best friend as an inspiration.
The End.
REVIEW :
I did not expect the twist in the end, and it made the story wonderful. Acting skills, just so so but I was drown in the story more. If I would give a rating, I will give 7.5/10. Worth watching for.
PS. There's a little touch of BL though.
