A masterpiece wih universal appeal

Director Marc Marriott has achieved the rare feat of creating a cinematic masterpiece that speaks to everyone, young and old, with equal force, in unforgettable imagery.The film has a simple message (it is a film with a big heart) but it develops this message and this meaning organically, through the questions the characters themselves ask and the quest they themselves set out upon, never knowing what they will find in the end nor the answer they will get. So the movie earns its credibility through the authenticity of the story itself and the superb performances that round out the production. Ten stars seems to slight a tribute!

Mesmerizing Cross-Cultural Fish-Out-of-Water Tale Shuttles Between Tokyo and Montana

First-time feature director Marc Marriott isn't Japanese, but his early career apprenticeship with revered Ozu disciple Yoji Yamada shows through in this satisfying 2024 dramedy. Co-written by filmmaker Dave Boyle and actress Ayako Fujitani (who co-stars as Keiko), the film takes the tried-and-true fish-out-of-water trope and elevates it into a heartfelt cross-cultural transformation adventure. The plot focuses on Hideki, a driven Japanese salaryman who heads up acquisitions for a Tokyo-based chocolate company. One of his riskier moves was having the company buy a money-losing Montana cattle ranch, so he convinces his management team he can turn it around into a profitable business producing expensive wagyu beef. Accompanied by a grizzled wagyu expert too irresponsible to be helpful, Hideki travels to Montana full of arrogance that he will excite the ranchers with his brilliant venture. Of course the opposite occurs and things unravel quickly. The story evolves leisurely between the expected and the sublime, and avoiding a predictable narrative, Marriott takes a rather elliptical approach that makes the film resonate. Arata Iura affectingly makes Hideki a relatably reluctant hero, while Fujitani plays his fiancée Keiko with a nice mix of coveted warmth and unblinking efficiency given her character is also Hideki's no-nonsense boss. Robin Weigert plays the ranch manager with calm authority, and Goya Robles quietly steals the film as the sympathetic ranch hand Javier. His story is worthy of another movie. The film wraps things up a little too neatly, but that doesn't take away from its overall impact enhanced by Oscar Ignacio Jimenez's hypnotic cinematography.

Out of the ordinary but warmly familiar

You can't ever forget the power of the open range even on those who have never seen it. The magic of mother nature to clear out the cobwebs and help you really see life for all its worth.Now I have to enter another 400 characters to satisfy the requirements for the website. Unlike the film, where simplicity is the key to clarity, someone decided the minimum amount required to get a point across. Sorry but that's arbitrary and meaningless. Was that written by someone who get paid by the word count? Please review this nonsense and allow freedom to determine quality over quantity. It's the right thing to do.PS The movie is good.
