Nobody Knows (2004)

dir. Hirokazu Koreeda

"she's not coming home today"

Nobody Knows is set in a small Tokyo apartment, where twelve year old Akira (Yûya Yagira) must care for his younger siblings Kyoko (Ayu Kitaura) Shigeru (Hiei Kimura) and Yuki (Momoko Shimizu) after their mother (Yukiko Ehara) leaves them. based loosely on the Sugamo child abandonment case of 1988, the film delicately balances art and realism in a raw depiction of neglect

the narrative follows the perspective of the children, which is reflected in the cinematography with tender observations of small mundane details. the slow, meditative pacing depicts the gradual deterioration of their living conditions as they barely scrape by with what little money their mother had left, yet through it all the children retain hope in a progressively decaying environment

"I simply want to look at people as they are" - Hirokazu Koreeda

Nobody Knows is an evocative juxtaposition of childhood innocence with cruel deprivation, making for an overall, beautifully devastating film

if more people knew Herstory (aka 2004 season and sete&vale) so many questions wrt 2015 season(mostly “why would vale….”) would immediately be answered addfghjk like guysssss guyssssss

it is kinda funny that there's a simple cheat code out there to understanding most of valentino's career but it's just about long enough ago that most people simply... ignore it. like there's a three year span that more or less tells you what you need to know about him. it's like you say! pretty much every possible "why would vale..." secretly has a straightforward answer, and 9/10 it's something that was established in 2003 to 2005. simple as

if anything it's almost annoying because it's too easy. the 2004/2015 stuff in particular is incredibly funny. oh, so you say you have a controversial last lap at assen where valentino beat a rival in direct combat and said rival reacted surprisingly poorly, making valentino reevaluate his relationship with the rival? might that tell you something about how a seed of suspicion once sown can remain dormant for months until valentino is given cause to revisit it? valentino quite literally says in his biography that he could never have hated biaggi because he wasn't a friend and didn't have the power to hurt him... the sepang pressers thing is genuinely just silly, I know this is mainly a function of when they happen in the calendar but what a bizarre coincidence. 2015 is like a slightly more opaque funhouse mirror version of 2004 - but so many of the major beats are virtually identical. which means you've got a season Out There where a younger less experienced less guarded less cynical valentino basically walks you through his internal processes so you get a really good handle of what his deal is. he's piecing together his identity as a competitor going forwards in real time - and then in 2015 he just reminds you of what exactly that identity involves. it's a reaffirmation and not a departure... he's not that inscrutable after all, in the end

I don't post a lot about Sandy because I know her position in the backstory* but not where she fits in with the main story, if at all. She might just be a side character I draw on my own and in the main story Heather's like "well I met a nice goth lady in a suit. Anyway, back to dealing with my father-in-law"

*Sandy dated Lou's older sister (before any of the older siblings were born) and turned her into a vampire. When her father was taking care of her, thinking that she was just sick/grieving over the break-up, she accidentally turned him into a vampire. Sandy's basically the whole reason any of this happened but that's ok

Ppl who were not diagnosed with ADHD until adulthood need to stop making assumptions about those of us who were diagnosed earlier. No, we didn't get the help we needed. Quite often nothing was different about our lives and yours except that we got called the R word more often.

I would not recommend this movie to my friends. I would not rewatch this movie.

I love when Akira smiles, but it also seems so sad to see him smile.

Steal because we are friends literally does not make sense.

Kyoko seems like such a pleasant girl.

I want to know more about Saki's backstory.

Interesting how the only character to show a tear is the mom.

Great acting.

This isn't a depressing movie, but it's a depressing situation.
