[KineJapan] Season's Greetings 2023

[Ted Fowler]

good christmas film or not, 'tokyo godfathers' is certainly a good japan film.
i used it several times in a course on contemporary culture.  it gave students
a feel for urban life (far from the glitzy sort offered up by the media) that
broadened their perspective on what tokyo/japan/human life is all about.

Asunto: [KineJapan] Season's Greetings 2023

I wanted to wish everyone on KineJapan a happy holiday season.

As a little game, I was wondering what people thought about Japanese Christmas films.
Kon Satoshi’s Tokyo Godfathers is often considered a good Christmas movie, but I
wondered what people thought about that or other films.
