Kawasaki's Rose

(note, the film may call itself Kawasaki Rose, but the Guide has it listed as Kawasaki's Rose)

Kawasaki's Rose is a suspenseful Czech family drama rooted in the relatively recent national political drama. some plots seemed a bit arbitrary - introduced and left to float off into the ether, never again to be seen. but that also contributed to the realistic flow of the film; life is, after all, full of unresolved randomness.. my major complaint however is that the film was quite verbose, turning into a speed-reading exercise on many occasions. as a result, i feel that i "saw" very little of the film. also, the actual film breaking during a critical reveal was a bit of a drag.. but it gave us all a moment to catch our breaths, which was kinda nice too!

overheard (during this impromptu break), a girlfriend talking to her date: "they're using such big words!! are you sure you're getting everything?" (heh)
