Tokyo International Film Festival



#1 House of Tolerance (2011, France)

Director: Bertrand Bonello

First, I simply enjoyed nudes !

Well, All these prostitutes had to be a fire in the dark.
It attracts men.

But what about inside of the fire?
There is no real fire there.
Men are playing in dream, created world. and so are all girls.
All struggle.

Last scene that one girl from this house is leaving seems she is releasing her mind to her new world.
She can live in real world from now on.
That was impressive.
You should look carefully at their faces.
No emotions in the house.

#2 Detachment (2012, United States)

Director: Tony Kaye
Stars: Adrien Brody
Lucy Liu
Sami Gayle

This one is about current situation in American education.

This film tells us how important all children feel love from their parents.
Teachers can understand troubles each student holds.
But most of time it requires "love".
When teachers refuse, it may let them kill themselves out of despair.
How can teachers face to them then?


#3 Albert Nobbs (2012, Unites States)

Director: Rodrigo Garcia
Stars: Mia Wasikowska
Aaron Johnson
Glenn Close

Hard times for ladies to live.
She died in the end, but by living as a man,
she could live with a wonderful dream.

She can say it was a good life.


#4 Trishna (2012, Netherlands)



#5 Corman's World (2011, United States)


A documentary film of Roger Corman.
I didn't know him before, but I realized he is a great man thorough this film.
God of making low cost film.

I'll try seeing his works.


#6 Bonsai (2011, France)
