An enjoyable movie but nothing you will remember as really touching or strongly amazing. The plot is obvious and only the warm colours of its beautiful fuzzy images are giving something more to the movie. Ah ... I've forgotten Miho Nakayama: she is always very capable and intense. Just a single movement of her eyes express a lot of sensations, more than the entire movie! Surely a mile above Hidetoshi Nishijima. Her beautiful face comes also better though years are passing by. Isn't she wasted for this movie? Yes for me!
