edwards drive-in

"tony takitani" is such an elegant little movie that moves all at once in narration, musical score, from scene to scene, actor to actor, like on long note, here and gone. it's based on a short story by haruki murakami and it has the same feel that his writing does. it's lyrical and light and then it sneaks up and carried more weight than it should. it's also visually beautiful. it's a meditation on loneliness and love and a lesson in subtlety. see it.
