I wade back into the disgusting river. This is the punching bag for the “needs depth” crowd just as civil war was for the “needs politics” people. I don’t think idiots should be given what they want and I still think that both films are equally bad and nothing. It’s a tricky one. All commenting and review is posture

Yearly check in. Still produces the electric flutter that travels down the spine. 60 more watches til death do us part

Like standing in front of a jet engine of quirk and bad acting. Ooh look at me I live in a London terrace and describe things as splendid. I will shatter you

Still Walking 2008
Fourth Kore-eda, easily the most impressive so far - this is how to evoke the Ozu way. The Kore-eda abnormal family theme is transplanted perfectly onto the quiet yearning and everyday melancholy that makes the style so universal. I see English repression run through this all the way. Don’t let the limited time you have with your family, the only family you will get, stop you from being repressed and bickering until the day you die.
