formulaic and dumb Damn shame as those films are full of character actors, but the recurring story of "old Boy who never gets the girl" the way he portrays it is just plain drivel, an idea no doubt culled from Luis Bunuels vastly superior "That Obscure Object of Desire"
Are you sure all these awards aren't just the incestuous Japanese film industry patting itself on the back?
He will have to do a helluva lot better than that with a Samurai drama, and I have my doubts, and, no, I haven't seen it
Sogo Ishii's GOJOE (2000) sets the benchmark for a rattling good Samurai yarn (tho' I conceed a very deep bow to Kurosawas "Shichinin no Samurai") I've included a link to a review of GOJOE, unfortunately it seems the foreign release will lose 40 minutes of film...Eric
