Okko e Os Espíritos

A beautiful film, that progressively got me more teary eyed as it went on. I'm a sucker for any movie that deals with loss like this, hits so close to home and I appreciate experiencing a good cry sometimes

This film was a solid insight into Japanese values and culture. Tradition, death, work ethic, youth, aging, family, spirits, health, food, healing and respect, all set in a beautiful hot spring onsen (bath) village sea side community. There's a lot to like about this film, and even more so if you're ready to look at culture's outside of hollywood western brat formats. A fun watch if a little bit by the numbers for Japanese values.

We enjoyed it! It was good and fun. What a great innkeeper! Great food scene too near the end of the middle, lots of food. Pretty nice and cute movie! We'd stay at this inn, love the food

Ok, I don't really make reviews on movies I love, but I'm making an exception for this one. The story of Okko's Inn will glue you to your screen. The plot of this movie has this sense of calm and excitement. I was amazed on how the twist of the story entered the scene, that I literally clapped my hands momentarily.

I normally know where the story of films I watch take me, but for Okko's Inn I was caught by surprise. I love how the plot took my enthusiasm to watch it higher and higher, then all of a sudden, the great Twist comes in. It's like fireworks everywhere.

I love this film that it tops my list, above Spirited Away.

Lastly, if you have shallow tears, a hankie or a tissue will come in handy.

A beautiful film, ideal to teach a child what death is.
