keep walking

A delicate and warm Japanese family movie, it's very strange that this two-hour time tells the story of a day, but there is no special plot that will make people so moving. The scorching summer, the cicadas in the afternoon, the stone steps up the mountain one by one, the yellow butterflies flying, and the sound of frying corn in the kitchen. Promised to go to the football with dad, promise to buy a car to take mom to the supermarket... "Why is it always half a beat"

In the end, many have not watched a football game with their father, nor have they driven their mother to the supermarket. I really like the lines in the movie, and the warmth is not pretentious: "You are only 25 years old, you can be whoever you want to be." "Children don't need to grow up the way you want." And the night of the little prince 's monologue: "Today I saw a yellow butterfly. It's exactly the same as the one my father caught in Karuizawa. When I grow up, I want to be a piano tuner just like my father. If not, then become a piano tuner. A doctor." Hey, we keep walking on the road of life, why do we always take a beat. Take a quick shot and a slow shot, and do it and cherish it.
