I heard delightful news. A Japanese directer, Hirokazu Koreeda won award in Cannes Festival.

I like his film, 誰も知らない "Nobody Knows". It is a serious theme about society or family. It was shocking story for me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLtMmJoBIB4

We are glad many people know and see Japanese films. His new film そして父になる "Like Father,Like Son" seems so interesting. Masaharu Fukuyama, very famous singer and actor appears in it. Now his TV drama series, "Galileo" is on air and so popular in Japan.

I want to see Like Father, Like Son soon. (We can see it in October in Japan.)
