Regular JT film critics Mark Schilling, Kaori Shoji and Giovanni Fazio got together at the Uplink theater/restaurant in Shibuya to talk about each other¡¯s No. 1 films for 2013: ¡°Cloud Atlas¡± (Fazio), ¡°The Perks of Being a Wallflower¡± (Shoji) and ¡°Kaguya-hime no Monogatari (The Tale of Princess Kaguya)¡± (Schilling). The discussion was heated, but no crockery was thrown.
Cloud Atlas
M.S.: ¡°Cloud Atlas¡± really divided the critics, but I got caught up in it. I thought, though, if you don¡¯t believe the philosophical/religious stuff in the film ¡ª we¡¯re all connected, etc ¡ª it might seem like a big pile of tosh. (Laughs.)
