Movie - Contes du hasard et autres fantaisies
I was late and missed the beginning of the movie ! Anyway ! Japanese movies are so different compared to French or American cinema. The intonation of the japanese language can be surprising sometimes. I recognized some actors I already knew. They are all so talented. Three short stories based on love and relationships. It is amazing to see that Japanese are more direct but also very complicate and tortured sometimes.
I liked it because of the way it was filmed, because it was a bit slow (you hold your breath waiting to see what is going to happen next), because of the fashion (elegant and minimalist), because of the streets of Tokyo shown (it is on my wishlist for so many years now, but still a dream to realise), the faces of the protagonists showing so much despair at some point. To appreciate this kind of movie you need to be open minded and forget all about the way you live in your own country. It is so fresh and disappointing at the same time. Intellectual like and moving at the same time.
