This message is to respond to the movie, Departures. I have seen this movie twice, once in the theater, and once on DVD, which I bought, and I agree, viewers will not be disappointed. While the movie does deal with death and the fragility of life, it does so with warmth and humor. Another movie about contemporary Japan, that I would recommend is Tokyo Sonata. Tokyo Sonata's plot tackles how unemployment and limited economic opportunities in Japan, are tearing at the fabric of modern Japanese society. [Edit by="rhitlin on Jan 31, 1:23:31 PM"][/Edit]
