![]() His Kizuki’s death has somehow haunted him, and he realizes that he is mostly an outsider to others. The main character is Toru Watanabe, a Tokyo college student whose best friend, Kizuki, committed suicide during high school. ![]() I wouldn’t discuss the plot anymore, or else this would become a veeeery long-winded review. Rather than my typical movie reviews where I just analyze the characters, plot, settings, or random tidbits about the movie I will be mostly focusing on the character portrayals and the setting. There were a lot of things missing from the novels, which were either cut, or not shown at all–especially the “Storm Trooper” scenes which were explained on a few conversations. I have to be honest, when I first watched the film I didn’t particularly like it. I got a better copy, so I decided to watch it again. I watched this a year ago, but with a horrible audio, video, and subtitle quality (seriously the subtitles disappear in some scenes and the grammar is horrendous). ![]() ![]() Norwegian Wood is based on the Japanese novel by Haruki Murakami, and is by far, one of my most favorite. Nope, not the song of the same name by the Beatles, but it is somewhat recurring in the movie. ![]()
