So even if you can’t understand the damn movie, you have to admit this guy is hip. Oh, and throws a layer of ‘cyber’ chatroom text over the whole thing for good measure. Oh, and changes from ‘regular’ cinematography to ‘hand held cheapo videocamera’ style every other scene.
#ALL ABOUT LILY CHOU CHOU FINAL SCENE MOVIE#
So he’s trying to be hip when he makes the movie go backward and forward in time. Perhaps this will explain the confusion of the film: it’s made by Shunji Iwaii, who is in his late 30’s but is ‘really in tune with youth culture’ (meaning, he used to make music videos).
AND THE MOVIE KEEPS GOING BACKWARD AND FORWARD IN TIME so the characters always look different, maybe I don’t have to be a white-supremacist Nazi to lose track. and they spend the whole film wearing identical school uniforms. Does it sound racist to say I can’t tell the characters apart? I swear to god I’ve seen tons of Asian (or even Asian-American movies) and ALWAYS been able to tell people apart.īut when you have around, oh, TWENTYFIVE main characters. But I can’t do this about LILY CHOU-CHOU, because I couldn’t figure it out at all. Normally I am a Ruthless Reviewer who would not think twice about giving away the plot of a film. And it WILL leave you feeling kind of soiled when it’s done with you. The easiest way to sum this movie up is to say it’s the Japanese version of Harmony Korine’s Kids. – Yu Aoi as Shiori Suda – Ayumi Ito as Yoko Kumo
