Still Walking (Caminando)

Kun den mesterlige fortæller Koreeda kan få så meget ud af så lidt.

Painful family issues are more likely to stay beneath the surface, known to everyone but not spoken of. "Still Walking," a magnificent new film from Japan, is very wise about that, and very true.

The movie seems like a perfect found object, as if it had always existed and was just waiting to be uncovered.

...a scathing satire on Japanese manners beneath whose surface solicitude and substratal seething lies a thin layer of genuine affection.

...a "family movie" in the classic Japanese style, and a variant – ­offered in an intelligent, if ­interestingly humble spirit of homage – to Ozu's 'Tokyo Story'.
