This movie definitely takes its time. I don't mind that at all.
Not sure how I feel about this movie... the opening scene is of a dead woman on top of her husband - dying after reaching orgasm during sex - giving her husband "one last gift" (I won't say more as not to ruin the film)...
It has been a joy to discover Japanese films because the women are thin, are not inked and usually have clean bodies.Japanese movies are mostly family dramas without major events or plot twists.
This film is personal, a film by a woman that will certainly resonate with women everywhere & it feels real. It's not the grey sludge formula of Hollywood, all fast edits & flashy cliches, pre-digested junk food, that leave one feeling none the better.
