グーグーだって猫である (咕咕是一只猫)

I'm glad I watched this movie.

"Cats grow old 3 times faster than human beings..." (at 00:13:00)
A good reminder that we should love our cat/pet more now, not when they are gone...

K - 20 怪人二十面相

K-20 is action-packed, almost like the Japanese Batman or Zorro. :) And of course, love the fact that 金城武 and 松たか子 are in it!

「暗いところで待ち合わせ」

I love to watch Tanaka Rena maybe because her look resembles a cute little kitten to me. This movie is quite interesting. I think most people will find it very slow and boring, but I really enjoyed it. I like the story line and the interactions between the 2 main characters. It's a must see! :)

『おくりびと』

やっと見られた! It's a wonderful, heart-warming movie. I disagree with New York Times' review saying "one would wish for a fast-forward button to confirm what they already predicted." This movie is not about predicting what is going to happen next, but rather to experience the love and tenderness of human relationships and the emotions associated with deaths.

Anyway, I am a fan of 山崎努. Only he can play the characters he played in all those dramas and movies. 本木雅弘 and 広末涼子 are also good actors that I like to watch, so all in all, a great movie!

A Children's Classic

I am so happy to have come across this book, Harry the Dirty Dog, during holiday shopping! I was first attracted by the book cover and then fell in love after reading it. What is even more amazing is that it was first published in 1956 - what a lucky find for someone who rarely reads! ;)
