Watching an American film,"Nomadland"

Image
 I had been a big fan of The Academy awards since I was 13 years old.　I was used to guess the awards before I couldn't even watch some nominated films in Japan and hand over the paper I wrote my bet to my mother until the oscars day when I was a teenager. Anyway, I was looking forward to watching a this year's sure bet film,"Nomadland". I recently watched it. Because  I had been a long movie buff wastefully, some scenes of this film reminds me of some films such as "Days of Heaven", ”The Whale of August", and, a French film, " Vagabond ”  I have a common with a leading role's husband liked DIY for a car(So does my husband), therefore, I started to synchronize Frances Macdormand's character in this film. But, Not her, I felt relieved to watch her sister's home and realized I can't live like this film. I was fully enjoyed this calm, big and beautiful American nature scenery film which recapture my past that one kind old couple in Cali...

Conglats to a Korean movie "Parasite" winning Oscars!

It is a good news about a Korean movie"Parasite" winning Oscars for me as one of the same asian who likes to watch Korean movies and dramas.  They made a history even a Japanese director, Akira Kurosawa couldn't make it.

I heard Korean government pour much more power to their film industry than their car industry about more than 15 ago.  I get that their effort pays off now.  

I know  a director of " Parasite",Bong Joon-ho is excellent, but this movie is contributed by a wonderful actor, 
Song Kang-ho.  He is a non-good looking guy but always 
acts attractively in his movies.  I think there is no actors like
 him in Japan.  I was so dissapointed by his non-nominated
Oscars(I know Joaquin Phoenix won Oscars even if he is nominated).

 I will show my favorite movie's trailer of director 
Bong Joon-ho's first directed film "Barking dogs never bite".

R.I.P the French film director, Bertrand Tavernier

Image
 I was sad to read an obituary of a French film director, Bertrand Tavernier last month. My first his film was "Un dimanche à la campagne" on a television. There was a midnight television program aired an arthouse movie weekly.  It was a good opportunity for a moneyless school girl to watch some great movies which I didn't know at that time.   "Un dimanche à la campagne" was a story of a quiet but dramatic daily life of one old artist. There was a several black moments which the director studied the black color carefully.  It was a picturesque film. I was very impressed by this film and went to see his film,"Round Midnight" at the movie theater with my mother. This film taught me how musician profession is a hard work for life. R.I.P Monsieur  Bertrand Tavernier

Japanese nostalgy popular song, "Distance under the star sky" by THE ALFEE

Image
 I listened this song persistent repeatedly just after my best friend passed away one year ago. This band is my BFF's favorite band and everybody knows their name in Japan.  This guitar trio members are different looks, one is Japanese City pop style look, one is Japanese folk song style, and another is Rococo style. I wonder they split their band as difference in music direction like typical band’s break up story. This song's theme is love song. Our friendship is not love but sister love. I always cried  by the phrase,"Is it only one mistake as saying good bye, isn't it? for some reason at that time. "Distance under the star sky " by THE ALFEE A brast wind is dancing in my mind now Is it only one mistake as saying good bye, isn't it? Even there is away from 500 mile We ask each other in our minds again as night comes Distance under the star sky Burn up!  Resistance of love! We get over the night that blocks us One more to harbor you.... Baby, Come back! ...
