wikipedia
This movie follows a funeral from start to end, a perfect excuse to take a relaxed look at the many rituals that punctuate Japanese life, and to hear some of the thoughts that cross people's minds in such situations. The head of the family is played by Tsutomu Yamazaki, a beautiful Japanese actor who has featured in classics ranging from the noodle comedy
Tampopo by the same director (Juzo Itami) to Akira Kurosawa's hospital drama
Red Beard. Perhaps by coincidence, he was a brilliant funeral director in
Departures 24 years later. It's a good movie, and you may smile, but you won't laugh.
