found the movie depicted much of what I found there. Also I really don't think this issue of Chinese playing Japanese, or other ethnic actors playing different roles is an issue. I thought we got past this a long time ago. Having spent a lot of time in the past in Japan and found the film reflected a lot of what I found there esthetically.. The photography was excellent ,also the music beautiful and appropriate. Some of the supporting roles I thought were very good and maybe should get recognized. All in all I think it is a very fine film.
