Beautiful slice of life, too much "Western" influence
I went in with no expectations whatsoever. I just needed a palate cleanser after Flower of Evil.
Melo movie did not dissapoint at all. It seems I love shows which have no definite starting point or end, really a slice of life.
What made me love this one even more, was the fact that the topics were so "real life" topics. We had career-wise struggles, careers which took of because of past disappointments, relationships that fell apart without the drama, mental health, death and mourning.
I pretty much loved everything about it and oftentimes found myself thinking about the way my life was going.
But, even though I was very drawn to the story and the lack of over the top drama, I still felt like there was this underlying level of Western cinema lurking. Can't really put my finger on what it is, but that feeling ruined it a bit for me.
I know this doesn't make sense, even if you'd ask me about ot, I couldn't put it in to words, so sorry about that.
The feeling didn't stop me from finishing it, but I probably won't rewatch this one. All in all a solid 8.
