Tokyo Taxi - of course when you have two amazing actors on screen things are very nicely done esp with their little gestures. Taxi drive was given a ride with an older lady. He was subbing for a friend so he had no idea it was such a long drive. Vaguely 60-100 km from Tokyo to Kanagawa (esp they had to go from teh woman's house to Kanagawa.
Truly a smooth 1.5 hr movie - a bit of flashbacks of the lady (80+) which was during and about the war. The flashbacks are legit, solid, actual issues and despite it was told by an old woman in a taxi, you feel for her in the stories.
Something about the movie just makes it so easy to watch, heart warming and you want to follow the character. Everyone can guess the ending, you KNOW it's coming so I can't spoil it but despite that, you jsut dn't want the movie to end.
Movie was filmed with green screen backgrounds of them in the taxi which is like duhhh... one give away was there ai'nt too much shadows from the sun which i guess AI / green screen can never give you.
