O que Você Comeu Ontem?

This adaptation for the big screen of the hit drama (itself an adaptation of the hit manga) is pure charm. The entire cast shines in portraying a tale of grown up love and companionship (the fact that it's of the same sex kind it's almost marginal, so is the naturalness with which it is told).

Highly recommended.

Who says cheeky romance is for adolescents only?... A plot that intertwines two middle aged men to fall in love for a common interest, food. One loves to eat while other cooks. One is a cheerful hairstylist while other is a disciplined civil lawyer. One is outspoken while the other is sceptic of the worldly judgements. Story is brilliantly executed by the director, based upon a manga of the same name by Fumi Yoshinaga, emphasizing acceptance towards a gay couple in the society. The subsidiary couple are a new level of entertainment. An extremely savory chemistry between the actors Nishijima hidetoshi and Uchino seiyou kept me captivated through this short yet satisfying plot. It served an aromatic interaction, refreshingly platonic, to my heart's content.
