ASAKO I & II 寝ても覚めても review

Directed by Ryusuke Hamaguchi and written with Sachiko Tanaka

Genre: Romance drama

Year released: 2018

Duration: 119 minutes

I saw this on an Instagram reel—I'm planning to see every bookmarked movie I saved so I came back to my collections and I chose this. Before looking for the movie, the last comment I remember under the reel was "Don't even bother finding it, it's crap." Somehow I was enraged and I ran off to a different site. Because the cinematography looked really promising, and maybe I'm biased to Japanese movies. I haven't seen much. I think this is my second to "Blue". I watch more animated movies than actual people. But there's no way this could be bad. So I played it. And I knew I was right. I always loved how raw movie characters are in the Japanese cinema. I believe they represent all of us in humanity very well. We make bad decisions, we like to pretend we don't feel what we feel, we sleep like children and wake up like children, we feel angry in behalf of the people we love, we suffer for them, we forgive them, we are terrible people but we always try for the people we want to love. I think this movie is personal to me. Especially the main character. I've been in love with someone for a long time now. We won't ever be together though. That's a lie because I still hope. I don't have anyone I'm entertaining, but I always wonder, if I had a partner five years from now, who would I choose if my first love called my name? It scares me to answer so fast. Deep down, I know. And deep down, I know it won't go away. I might forget about it. When I remember, it's like I'm a thirteen year old who's enthusiastic about the multiverse and time-detoriation all over again. I hope I can love again.

Asako I & II (Hamaguchi Ryusuke, 2018)

From a to b, asako(1) + x = asako(2) + x. Solve for x. No, rather, how does the asako function feel from a to b? I still don't quite get Hamaguchi. That either means i don't understand what elevates him over makers of similar films or i'm too dumb to fully be receptive of his films. Regardless, this is well the one i've liked most.
