Viewing Notes
Had to watch it again b/c it’s so beautiful. Also another example of what I’ve mentioned in the past; places like this temple still exist all over Japan that look just like they did 100+ years ago. So filmmakers can make period flicks that look authentic. It’s awesome.
I haven’t seen Toyoda’s work and I need to rectify that.
