I think this movie is an essence of documentary movie. Ordinarily, we are rarely ready to watch documentary movies because , to say the least, they are not exciting. More excited Star Wars should make me!(Only me?) Similarly, this movie would be anything but exciting even if anyone watch it, but documentary movies can inform us of many facts or much knowledge, and then they give us the opportunities that we reflect on news, history, incident and so on. These things considered, documentary movies benefit us more overwhlemingly than other kinds of movies. We don't have to contemplate in earnest. It should be just great to get a little knowledge.
Asayo Murakami, what a patriotic woman she is! Even since she left Japan and settled in Canada, she hadn't intend to learn English. She only said "Yes," "No," "Hello," etc. Very simple! That's because she wanted to keep the memory of Japan! I dear say she must have thought she was bound to forget many precious memories of Japan if learning English. In addition, as Yasuyuki said yesterday, she was strong. I really consider such an attitude very nice beyond description. Definitely, she was a sincere person and absolutely stuck to what she made up her mind to do. I really look up to such a strong person.
