A line from Heist http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0252503/

I can tell she thinks I'm a total wanker. Of course, she's completely right. I thought that every cunt over twenty was a total toss and not worth speaking too, until I hit twenty. The more I see, the more I think I was right. After that it's all ugly compromise, all timid surrender, progressively until death.

Mark Renton in Trainspotting

If you're so pro-life, do me a favour: don't lock arms and block medical clinics. If you're so pro-life, lock arms and block cemeteries.

This film may accurately depict Japanese office life or it may be full of stereotypes, I don't know. But whichever it is, it makes a wonderful story brought to life by a good cast.

Belgian Amelie seems to know Japan and it's culture, but can't help get into trouble by acting "Western" while working in a Japanese office. As the film goes on you see Amelie make mistakes and you get the urge to warn her not to get into trouble. Her sense of absurdity and courageous submittance make her a likable character. The constricted setting in which people don't express their feelings make the internal monologues and narration very functional.

The story is strong, the filming sober and functional, the cast well-picked. A nice experience for anyone who wants to watch a production from outside LA.
