December 28th, 2011
NORWEGIAN WOOD- 2012. Synopsis by Netflix. “Set in 1969 Tokyo, this melancholic tale centers on serious young college freshman Toru Watanabe (Ken’ichi Matsuyama), whose developing relationship with childhood friend Naoko (Rinko Kikuchi) drags into the present a terrible event both would rather bury. While Naoko begins to withdraw, Toru awakens to the political and cultural tumult around him, and when he meets the intriguing Midori (Kiko Mizuhara), Toru must confront his own uncertain heart.” Very good reviews. TRDB.
1/6/12- Fair review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.
7/7/12- This film was way too slow, even for me. There was no life to any of the characters. TRDB. Netflix Streaming.
