Jiro dreams of sushi

A good documentary is like a symphony, with cadence and rhythm.
Jiro narrated his dream in his old voice, about the dream of sushi, this is the beginning, melodious, slowly pulling people into Jiro's dream, the world of sushi.
In fact, I prefer the original English name "jiro dreams of sushi". The 80-year-old Jiro has a wrinkled face. In his dreams, he is still inseparable from sushi day and night. People's dedication and belief in their work.
The idea and presentation of the "professional" is the climax of this film. The momentum of the movement is gradually rising, and characters are interspersed, including middle-aged apprentices, including the owner of the fresh food store, the owner of the rice shop, etc., Interweaving a world of "professionals" around Jiro: if you join this industry, if you love it, you should give 100% effort and 120% enthusiasm to be the best. The idea is simple, but difficult.
The final chapter is about the inheritance of Jiro's sushi restaurant, but I think there is already an answer in the film. As long as Jiro's descendants and apprentices can uphold the spirit of "professionalism", Jiro's sushi restaurant will no longer just represent a restaurant. A small shop hidden in the downtown area will become an abstract symbol in the sushi world and will be passed down forever.

    Last night when I really wanted to eat Japanese food, I saw this godlike old Japanese man

    A clean and tidy food house, a spirited old man, a case of pleasing and exquisite food; I tell you, if there is such a place in my country, if I can’t afford it, I have to go there and see it. I’m hungry. Go to the opposite supermarket to make a bowl of noodles.
