If you loved Memories of Matsuko, try Paco and the Magical Book
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Paco and the Magical Book ha circa 8.2× voti in meno di Memories of Matsuko — è una scelta di nicchia, non una raccomandazione mainstream. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Tetsuya Nakashima, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Memories of Matsuko, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Paco and the Magical Book is
Nakashima apparently felt the world needed a live-action cartoon. A motley crew of hospital patients stage a play for a young girl who loses her memory every day. It's either deeply moving or deeply annoying, depending on your tolerance for whimsy.
