Tokyo Fiancee
Yesterday I watched a French film ‘Tokyo Fiancee’. This film is adaptation of best-selling novel by Amelie Nothomb. I read this novel last year, but it wasn’t like me at all. And I decided to watch this film after got a good recommendation one of my best friend. Together we study Korean language and culture, and we saw a lot of moves about Korean, Japan and China so I trust to her taste.
This film about twenty years old Belgian girl Amelie who came to Japan. She has two dreams. First is “to become Japanese”. And second is to become a great writer. She studied Japanese language in Tokyo and decided to teach somebody French like a part-time job. Her first student was good looking Japanese Rinri. She loves Japan culture and he loves French culture and they fell in love to each other at first sight. They spent time very well, together they cooking, eating, walking and travelling a lot, but for Amelie this relationship was not easy. The truth is that for European girl to become a Japanese means to forget about freedom. Often she didn’t understand Rinri, his parents, his friends. And Rinri didn’t like to speak a lot, he preferred to show. She loved him, but she said what she was happy with him and without him too.
At a glance, the film is comedy. It is interesting to see Japan through Amelie’s eyes. But I think it is more drama.
