If you're looking for comfort - find a good sofa! So often we watch a film to feel comforted and end up getting nothing out of it except feeling drained of whatever was left... But Margot...I was compelled to watch, as if someone was poking me in the side insisting that I pay attention. The original dialogue cut like a knife - as if the leads were taking verbal stabs at each other. And yet I felt for each of them, their frustration with themselves and their agitation at each other. Noah Baumbach's uncomfortably insightful script and unforgiving direction coupled with such superb performances will no doubt secure "Margot at the wedding" a place on the cult classic list.

The original story of amazingly greedy people with cheat, embezzle and corruption, is an original, written by Kaneto Shindo. It's all set in this little apartment of the Maeda family. The son's taking money from the talent agency that he's working for. But the money's somehow missing. Who's taking it? Parents, who act like they're poor, seem to be hiding something. Or is that the daughter, the writer's mistress? Maybe the tax man, who was helping the agency to evade a tax? The singer looks like he lost so much money, too. Who's the most greedy, clever, smart, sexy and strongest but never seems to show that and always behave gracefully?? This absolute classic (directed by a legend Yuzo Kawashima),beautifully shot and acted should be seen more...and watch out the title role, played by the greatest Ayako Wakao!
