“Documentary filmmaker Genya Tachibana has tracked down . This week's film is the wild & eccentric dreamscape from the late Satoshi Kon: Millennium Actress. Have you seen this? want to / seen some / seen all. A review by Michael Arnold of Millennium Actress (Sennen Joyu, 2002, Satoshi KON).
Kon's classic mind-bending journey through the life and career of a reclusive former actress gets a new 4K remastered presentation. That's when you even fail to lament your most precious loss! The story here takes a huge metaphysical leap to emphasize the immortality of love and cinema.Then I'll show you that starry, starry sky, like I promised I would. Here comes the struggle that's even harder than the life-time seeking of love: the struggle of desperately trying to hold onto memories of lost love while your aging mind failing you. But youthfulness withers, allowing memories to fade away. Now I can't remember his face!" The story moulds the agonizing feelings of longing in memory vessels that would preserve love so long as youthfulness lasts. "I can't remember! Not even his face! I loved him so much. I'm sure, however, that a rewatch can make me pump my rating up. That said, Millennium Actress perhaps runs too short to make a lasting impact on me, and the frenetic pace doesn't help either. In addition, that made us pry to Chiyoko's both inner and outer feelings throughout her cinematic and love-pursuing journey. The cheekily innovative way of making them intervene in her quasi-fictional stories added a sense of meta and light relief that imbued the film with much needed breeziness.

Satoshi Kon captures that notion here to perfection, blurring the logical line between reality and fiction, forcing us to completely rely on what we feel as we're letting the movie wash over us. It has the ability to ground the most wild and fanciful stories in reality because it evokes emotion in such a way the viewer comes to identify with the characters and invest in the story readily. Ever wondered why does a well-told love story always work in every movie regardless of its genre? Be it a shoot-'em-up actioner, a swashbuckling fantasy, an alien-invasion sci-fi or a cowboy western, nothing can prove a constraint to the power of love in cinema. … ExpandĮver wondered why does a well-told love story always work in every movie regardless of its genre? Be it a shoot-'em-up actioner, a swashbuckling fantasy, an alien-invasion sci-fi or a cowboy western, nothing can prove a constraint to the power of love in cinema. This one goes down as not just one of the greatest animated drama, not just one of the greatest anime, but truly as a great film. I can't imagine anyone who couldn't understand that part of the movie, and hope to goodness I never become such a person. It's fairly easy to tell when the "real world" and "film world" change off, except when it's intentional. And despite its language barrier, despite the culture barrier, despite it being animated, it will touch you. There may be no tribute to American film that rivals what this does for its homeland. That said, its sentimentality and original execution are inspiring. It's deep and meaningful tapestry of Asian film history is beautiful, but also outside the frame of reference for all but the most informed foreign movie goers. That said, its sentimentality and original execution are Millennium Actress is lost on all cultures outside of Japan's. Millennium Actress is lost on all cultures outside of Japan's.
