From the beginning, you will know that there is no "hope". However, as you get deeper into the film, you want to hope for them.
Great Movie, as a romance fan of "dead" in the synopsis this movie satisfied me a lot. Before the 3 Gerberas reveal, i think the author do "too much" that this movie kinda feel like Your Lie in April and I want to eat your pancreas. I just don't like how this movie look like cheapskate of Your Lie in April(Anime), even tho this movie has potential but kinda wasted because they are "trying too much".
I really like the story telling, especially the 3 Gerberas scene, I love it really. Haruna, Miura, and Hayasaka really did well in this 3 Gerberas especially Miura the best character in this film.
Sinematography? Well its ok.
Acting? Good but not great.

The use of a blue haze creates a dreamlike atmosphere that complements the film's themes. This visual choice, while divisive among viewers, adds depth to the narrative and enhances the emotional impact of scenes.
The film's structure focuses on moments rather than grand gestures. This approach allows the story to unfold, drawing the audience into the characters' experiences. The pacing gives viewers time to reflect on the themes presented.
While the film treads familiar ground in the genre of terminal romance, its restraint and focus on small, meaningful interactions elevate it. "Drawing Closer" reminds us of the profound impact we can have on each other's lives, regardless of time. I really like it.

I watched it long ago so i forgot most of it, but I remember some scene. I am not satisfied with the scene where akito die, because ayaka is paint on his nail, and bro was on his death bed. There was a pipe on his face so he don't die, and ayaka thought that THIS moment is perfect for my nail painting session. So when I'm trying to cry, ayaka is painting his nails as if he is not human but a mannequin hand and personally haruna is not that good at acting and I feel like the end scene where akito is reading haruna's post to him, they drag too long. I'm happy to show to my review. And now I'm am writing because I am very critical thinker, others say so. I am very proud, so go and watch sakamoto days.
Draw Closer (2024) is a deeply moving film that captures the grief of life in a way that feels painfully real and at the same time shows that love that can transcend pain and suffering.
The narrative is beautifully woven, revealing layers of connection and distance, hope and despair. Every scene is charged with emotion, drawing you closer to the characters until their pain becomes your own. The cinematography is equally mesmerizing, capturing the subtle nuances of the story with a hauntingly beautiful aesthetic.
The story centers on love and loss, showing how these experiences shape us and sometimes break us. The characters' struggles with their emotions are portrayed so honestly that you can't help but feel their pain. This movie ruined me-it dives into the heartache of losing someone and the emptiness that follows, leaving you feeling heavy long after it ends.

Watching this movie made me realize on how our actions can affect others heavily. Although the acts we do may seem small, it may not be for others. The movie really helped me understand the feelings of others and how life has it's twist and turns. I broke down watching because of how relatable it was, I cried a bunch of times in multiple scenes. Watching the characters bond with each other as their relationship between one another improves. You understand about people's feelings and their perspectives. The similar beliefs and thoughts shared. I love this drama, it really hurts me differently. I just love how it makes you re-think about your actions and the affect it may have on others. This may help all of us viewers to change our way of life style and be more open to to others.
