Watched "K-20 Legend of the Mask"

Japanese movie.

The lead actor is that Japanese-Taiwanese Actor that played Zhu Ge Liang in Red Cliff.

A bit too long - 2 hours. Went in with low expectation so I was pleasantly surprised :D
It's all about "how much you made when you were right" & "how little you lost when you were wrong"

:arrow: Watched this in the threatre yesterday; orchestra scenes were excellent (Chiaki seemed to be multi-talented in piano, violin). I am not used to foreigners speaking japanese (dubbed for the movie release) ... other than this, do enjoy the outdoors scenes as movie was filmed in Paris, Tokyo, Germany, etc. There should be a part II upcoming ...


English Title: Nodame Cantabile
Alternative Title: のだめカンタービレ
Genre: Comedy, Romance
Japan Casts:
Endo Yuya, Fukada Aki, Iwasa Mayuko, Kobayashi Kinako, Saeko, Sakamoto Makoto, Ueno Juri, Yamanaka Takashi
Description: Based on the hit comic book by Tomoko Ninomiya, this is a fun-filled quirky romantic story of two very opposite people.

Megumi Noda, or “Nodame” is a piano student at Momogaoka College of Music. An extremely talented pianist who wants to be a kindergarten teacher, she prefers playing by ear rather than reading the music score. She is messy and disorganized, takes baths several days apart and loves to eat, sometimes stealing her friend’s lunchbox when it is filled with delicacies.

Shinichi Chiaki, is Momogaoka’s top student. Born into a musical family, he is talented in piano and violin and has secret ambitions to become a conductor. An arrogant multi-lingual perfectionist who once lived abroad in the music capitals of the world as a young boy, he feels mired in Japan because of a childhood phobia.

They meet by accident. Nodame quickly falls in love, but it takes much longer for Chiaki to even begin to appreciate Nodame’s unusual qualities. Their relationship causes them both to develop and grow. Because of Nodame, Chiaki transfers into the Conductor Division, leads a student orchestra and begins to have a broader appreciation of people's musical abilities. Because of Chiaki, Nodame faces her fears and enters a piano competition. Opportunities open up as both begin taking risks, stretching themselves far more than they ever thought possible ...
