This movie was certainly a beauty. The end was a little incomplete. And it did affect the movie. But I liked it. It was cute. All movies with Aoi Miyazaki are.
On the day of his university entrance ceremony, shutterbug Makoto (Tamaki) meets a fresh-faced, quirky girl named Shizuru (Miyazaki). He has a complex which causes him to shy away from contact with other people, but she succeeds in getting him to open up to her naturally. All Shizuru wants is to be with Makoto, so she takes up a camera too. The two spend their days together taking photos in the forest behind the campus.
However, Makoto has feelings for another student named Miyuki (Kuroki Meisa). Shizuru decides that if Makoto likes Miyuki, she wants to like her too. She wants to like everything that he does. One day, she tells Makoto that she wants to take a photo of them kissing in the forest for a competition. He obliges for her sake, and they kiss in the forest for the first time. However, from that day on, Shizuru disappears from Makato’s life…
This story was memorable. And the theme, being Ai Otsuka's "Renai Shashin" (the scene of love) really fits in with all this. Especially the Japanese title beign in the song Tada Kimi wo Aishiteru.
This movie was very adorable and had this great feeling to it. Easy sadness, easy telling. The acting was very nice. And thats when it hit me
Aoi Miyazaki?? Same as the one in last years Virgin Snow? SERIOUSLY?
lol.. i didnt know... ><. But anyways, It was fun to watch with company as well. :). The story seemed a little rushed, the end i mean. But everything else was just perfect. Mark: 7/10
