I loved the movie "Kamome Diner" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SQaVr0sfJA so I had been waiting for the chance to see this movie from when I saw this trailer for the first time!!
The director Naoko Ogigami is amazing!! http://www.fandango.com/naokoogigami/filmography/p396009
This was the first time to visit Japan Society but it was unique place!! I thought it was too much Japanese taste though... lol
And the movie was ... That's what I expected!!! That was exact what I wanted!!!! It was HILARIOUS!!!
I love this kind of slow heart warming Japanese comedy:)
And it was interesting to watch Japanese movie in English... not because of dubbing but that movie was really in English even when you watch in Japan. If you watch in Japan there is Japanese subtitle though... Because only Japanese actress was Masako Motai http://asianmediawiki.com/Masako_Motai
and others were all non Japanese actors.
So I think it is really easy to start watching Japanese movie with this movie.
Please try when you have chance!!! You won't regret for sure!!! :)
I still can't stop smiling when I think about that movie... :) :) :)
