All this for a bowl of noodles!
But man, what a bowl it was, so worth it.
Really glad I watched this because the editing in this movie is simply splendid, especially the first two-thirds. Well, except for the foot chase.
I love how so many oddities made their way into this movie. From odd objects the main character managed to fabricate, to intricate and idiosyncratic life habits the girl had, it was great and creative. Like the toy robot in the elevator, amazing! All those sequences of the girl going outside with the biker helmet were sublime, so well made. Great directing.
The ending, although good, was the weakest part of the movie for me. I guess I was so blown away by the rest that I was expecting a bit more.
I have never seen CAST AWAY and now I just found the perfect excuse.
At least this time the American movie came first... Usually it's the other way around.
