River of First Love (2004)

"River of first love" is a slow and smooth film
It has the rythm of old film and the quality even aged a bit.
If you are looking for a crazy and passionate love, you will be deceive. This being said, what is so good about it?

The story is nothing extraordinary, but the way it is told is extraordinary. With a few words the emotions are shown. The young actors may be a bit ankward, but it fits their characters, and the result is really great.The whole context is depicted with simplicity and it just gives you that thought: " yes it is just perfect". When you realize it, you understand how great this film is.

It leaves you a feeling hard to describe:
Personnally I really have appreciated this film, because I found in it the same peace of heart that I found in some great japanese novels. If some of you are fan of japanese litterary, it should please you. " river of first love" have "that" justness, peaceful and beautiful poetry.
