In recent years, various directors characterized by originality and / or nonconformity are taking a break from their standard of creativity to create a work closer trends so-called "commercial". This was the case with the unsuccessful Ryuichi Hiroki meatloaf Yomei ikkagetsu no Hanayome (Bride April) or are good with Shion Chanto tsutaeru (Be Sure To Share), so it's time for that Yoshiro Nakamura After a series of films ( Golden Slumber ; Fish Story ; The Foreign Duck, the Native Duck and God ) all marred by stories maybe a little 'convoluted, but still sharp and intriguing, you grant this quiet and pleasant family film.
A separate mother and infant son on the street see a man dressed as a samurai. Think is an actor for some advertising, but find, disbelief and fear, which is actually a real samurai from the Edo period of 1826. Clear case of displacement in time, the film has the intelligence to not bother to explain and illustrate the fantascientfico aspect of the story, but simply to have fun by combining modes of thinking and acting of the samurai to those of people today. While never abandoning his katana trusts - which, however, as you can imagine, is helpful in times of danger, then as now - the samurai involved in the life of the mother and child, and above all a passion for art pastry kitchen , becomes a friend and father of the child, discovers, inevitably, cell phone use. A comparison of attitudes, though superficial, is funny, sweet and sometimes cuffed commmoventi.
The moral, if he wants to find one, could apply to all countries to be able to do good things today sense as a parent, friend or husband we need a man in one piece, a man from another time, just a samurai.
Nishikido Ryo, with his dark and sullen frown goes down well in hand; Tomozaka Rye would be nice as a young mother who has to find a new partner was not for the fact that continually tends to bend the mouth to the right.
"Chonmage" is the name of the hairstyle typical of the samurai, with his head semirasata and hair in a big band at the center of its head and tail. "Purin" is the Japanese pronunciation for "pudding" and refers to a Japanese-derived sweet pudding, like pudding and crème caramel. [FP]
