    (^-^)/ it's all about the money... $$$$$
    This film has ever been a favourite of mine since I've seen him. I like its kind of humour which made me laugh for the entire movie. I have to admit that I like watching japanese films but this one should be very funny to everyone. For those who liked this film I recommend 'Postman Blues' another very good japanese film of similar quality. Too bad that 'Himitsu no hanazono' is only available on VHS to this day. I really hope this changes some day... You just have to see what a woman might do to get a case full of money!
