One of those hilarious, tear-jerkers from the famed director-Yamada Yoji of the Tora-san fame.  The three main actors--Takakura Ken, Takeda Tetsuya, and Momoi Kaori, with an appearance from Baisho Chieko-- give an outstanding performance.  The storyline is reminiscent of Tony Orlando's song "Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree".  One of my favorite movies of all time.

Three complete strangers embark on a road-trip to Hokkaido.
