STILL WALKING OFFICIAL TRAILER

Beloved director Kore-Eda Hirokazu (AFTER LIFE, NOBODY KNOWS) returns to the forefront of world cinema with STILL WALKING - an exquisitely detailed family drama that shines with warmth and understanding. The film was one of the most critically acclaimed works at the Toronto, Tribeca, and San Francisco International Film Festivals. Lushly photographed, and with an expert script that incorporates elements of director Kore-Eda's personal experience, STILL WALKING is a quiet pleasure unlike anything else you will see this year. Fifteen years ago, Junpei, the youngest son of the Yokoyama family died while rescuing a boy from drowning. On the anniversary of his death, the remaining siblings visit the quaint home of their parents with their families in tow. Over the course of a beautiful day, new relatives become acquainted telling stories and squabbling over sizzling tempura and an elegant graveside ritual is performed for Junpei. Recalling the delicate splendor of Yasujiro Ozu's TOKYO STORY, Kore-Eda shows complete mastery of his characters while revealing the complex dynamics of an ultimately loving family with humor and warmth.

@0871356005 The song is called "Chores" by Keegan DeWitt. It is on the soundtrack of Miss Ohio. You can download the album for free on his website. Took me FOREVER to find it... perseverance really does pay off.

@Tyfyh Just for reassurance before watching a film. People will always look for opinions of others. Whether the opinion is by A.O Scott from the New York Times, or their big brother. It helps them grasp what someone they may respect thought of a film before watching it themselves.

The best thing of Japanese films is the director and the screenwriter(s) usually use the story to discuss the people's point of view for life nowadays. It's also the reason why I like to watch this kind of Japanese films as I can learn while watching them. Other countries may not make this kind of movies or not much.
