It is of course and remains a special true story. However, I find the film adaptation less special. It's a very long sit with a lot of the same. The middle section in particular could have been thickened a bit without anyone noticing, I think.

More of an impressive story than an impressive film, because I thought it was quite long-winded in places. And yet there seems to be a piece missing, because the longest period remains rather underexposed - while that is actually the most incomprehensible thing about the story.
What is phenomenally good is how the uniform is exactly the same as Onoda's original photos. In any case, it's absurd that he could walk around in that outfit for so long, it must have been seriously strong stuff. And that is the kind of detail that I really think is missing from the film.
The scenes at the end are by far the most interesting, but it does take a while to get to that point. And after that, the real Onoda didn't sit behind the geraniums - perhaps that would have made for an interesting film.

Nice movie, but I thought it was a bit too long. I would have preferred to see this incredible story in two hours. It is also so good because of Endo's performance, of course. And the fact that this is possible also has to do with Japanese culture, I think...
