I think you can get the DVD for about $ 10. now. I think it used to be about $29. If there is a Japanese video store in your area that store may have the unabriged version. The version released to America has 20 minutes cut out.
My goodness! If I had a colleague like Mr Aoki I would probably end up pulling my hear out in frustration, his skids are bloody irritating lol. Great movie though!
Sugiyama-san's tired facial expression in the subway is dead on and hilarious. People forget that there was a downside to prosperity and full employment. A dull,mind numbing job and long hours.Return home half dead.... late at night.Same thing every day.This is a brilliant film,one of the best to emerge from "boom era" Japan.
Respect for all. The subtitles and the way they did it is probably meant for the Hard of Hearing or the Deaf. I guess they combined both. But that's OK. I respect it. Great movie.
Yes! I just stumbled upon the american version on YT and fought to myself the japanese version is so much better. And here it is:-) Hurray! Thank you so much for sharing:-)
AWESOME!. Never knew there was a Japanese version, yay thank you~

great movie, definitely one of my favs. if only most americans would've seen the original they'd see how bad the american remake is.

I like how there's a whole quote from Shakespeare and they only translated "Shakespeare".

I agree on "Shall We Dance";the original had so much heart;also,I think it's particularly written for the Japanese culture...
