relaxing but serious film if you're looking for something different this is a film a recommend you watch
Heartfelt story about finding joy in the small everday things life brings
slow buildup but very serene
Perfect Days encourages a sort of radical presentness in our own lives – learning how to truly connect with our existence, even when it’s difficult or causes us to confront unpleasant truths.
Wenders structures the film episodically, so characters, such as a goofy co-worker, a homeless man and a suddenly appearing relative, come and go from Hirayama’s life. Thus the story relies on Yakusho to carry this movie, and that he does.
The film’s details collectively grow absurd and pompous.
