tokyo!

So, I finally watched Tokyo! tonight. I really liked the movie (which is a surreal triptych of three Tokyo set stories by Michel Gondry, Leos Carax, and Joon-ho Bong), but found the middle story to be a bit boring and grotesque (I pretty much just played scrabble throughout it). However, I loved Gondry's opening piece, Interior Design, and Bong's lovely ending romance, Shaking Tokyo. One thing's for sure: a trip to Tokyo can't come soon enough.

  1. What a lovely idea a Tokyo visit! it is much easier from Korea than Canada and much less expensive. GRM
