Asakusa Kid

The story is about Japanese director, Takeshi Kitano's relationship with his teacher who taught him how to be a comedian.

Liked how hardworking and talented Kitano is! Was impressed by how he incorporated comedy in his daily life like what his master preached!

The House

The movie consists of three short segments about the same house but with different characters.

The first segment was the strangest! Can't quite understand what was going on with the house but the baby was really good at climbing up and down! The second segment was the most disgusting with all the bugs! The third segment taught me that sometimes we should learn to let go and start afresh.

Liked the cosy atmosphere at the day care center! The haiku poems were quite nicely crafted!

The Farewell

This is based on a real story where a grandma's family who were living overseas came back to China to visit her as she had terminal illness. The grandma didn't know about it and they used a grandson's wedding as an excuse to gather.

Was really surprised that it was based on a real story as I thought it was quite unbelievable! Great acting by the lead actress!
