As I watched the film for the first I could believe how delightful it was. Now I have seen this interview, I want to watch it again. Thank you to everyone who took part in this film. It is a service to humanity.

His touching, long and accomplished smile, the luminous dawn lights,,the trumpeting soul music, I thought that the actor was about to break down in tears..such a high momentum in film history, which will stay with me forever.

Incredible. Only a director like Wim Wenders annd an actor like Koji Yakusho can elevate something so mundane like toilets and make them into fine art.

This is my kind of movie. In my tiny life, I try to recognize the pleasure in simple things. What else is there? I so like this film that I have purchased the Criterion edition recently released. It gives me a quiet joy.

Tip of the hat to the interviewer; she asks smart, well structured questions on a stage with heavyweights where it’s hard to hold your own.

Completely agree - well said. It’s not often you get such an on point interviewer for this and she killed it. And held her own on the stage, hopefully she reads these comments. Excellent interview of one of my favorite movies in years.

In the rest of the world, public toilets may not seem like anything, but in Japan and especially in Tokyo they are, and Wenders-sensei sure picked the best ones of all to be in his movie (the one that has glass doors that go dark when someone goes in,and become clear again once they get out 🤩)

Gosh, he aged so well (I thought he was old when Paris Texas came out), aged so well actually that Wes Anderson should put him into one of his films with a cameo (with the moustache), or even better, base a complete character on him.

I understand how this film may have been deeply moving and profound to Westerners not familiar with Zen Buddhism or Eastern Philosophy. It portrayed a character (almost) reaching enlightenment by limiting his attachments to possessions (and people) to make room for the appreciation of his surroundings and beautiful moments in his daily routine. For those familiar with Japanese cinema though, I think most will recognize that many Japanese samurai films have captured the same sense of a quiet life of mindfulness better than this because they contrast it with conflict and higher stakes. It was nice to see a character like this put to film in a modern setting but I'm not sure the cinematography and story structure were quite Oscar worthy for a feature film. At least to me, it felt like it was missing something, even though I understand that it was meant to be extremely subtle and open to interpretation.

I just sat thru this boring film and almost walked out 5 times. It's simply way too slow and repetitive, the directors eye for Japans charm is not much more than that of a tourist. The half hour we sat thru stupid wake up and front door scenes (obviously filmed at the same time), could have been handled in 5 mins. Ok so the protagonist is probably a JOHATSU - big deal, what a revelation! As an audience we don't care about some clever insights you read on the internet. 1000 hard copy photos of trees is simply inconceivable! Shadows upon shadows under the bridge is not going to save this sleeping pill. The restaurant scene was probably the last chance to pull this crock together - but fails with another inconceivable dialogue. Nice try, but I think you have missed the target.
