Spend an afternoon with Anh Hung Tran’s lofty film adaptation about young love. Set in ’60s Japan, the story begins with death: Kizuki commits suicide, leaving best friend Toru and girlfriend Naoko pining. Jonny Greenwood and Mother Nature score the marathon movie; its trek through the changing seasons feeds hungry eyes. So just sit back, and let it grow on you.
It’s like: Legends of the Fall — and winter and spring.
Take: The scenic route.
Premiered: January 6
