Much like 400Blows and Joe the King, Micha is a rather neglected kid…he feels unwanted and unloved. His mother has just [...]

Japanese Story (2003)When I first saw the posters of this movie when it was first released I thought…this must be an arthouse flick. I guess it is… right? By the way…what is an arthouse flick? Something that is independently made? With a small budget? One that usually has little, but deep insightful, meaningful dialogue and [...]
