Perfect Days, a film by Wim Wenders
In cinema's now
Nominated for Best International Film, Wim Wenders's "Perfect Days" follows Hirayama, played by Koji Yakusho, through his meticulously routine life maintaining Tokyo's public toilets. Despite minimal dialogue, Yakusho's performance resonates deeply, compensating for any perceived shortcomings. Wenders's apt song choices elevate scenes, leading to a finale that highlights the actor's brilliance.
