when could this window be mine?

Look, its a great movie. But will I, as an American, ever get the chance to own it? Hell no! Because whoever makes these things happen doesn't know how great this movie is. OUTRAGE!

Granted, I saw it in Film School so the chances I'll ever see it again are slim. But this is a 95 minute piece of Japanese culture you have only glimpsed in your embarrassingly large anime collection. Furumaya has what we are all looking for in Japanese cinema. Killer sound design too. Think FLCL meets Kurosawa. This is not a movie about Japanese kids trying out their take on American cool for a western audience. This is bizarre, subdued Japanese storytelling of the 1990's and it needs to be regarded as much as (if not more so) than early 90's American independent film-making. You wont regret seeing this movie.
