‘My Sunshine’ Review: Wistful Ice Dancing Tale Confirms Hiroshi Okuyama As Emerging Japanese Filmmaker – Cannes Film Festival
A review of 'My Sunshine', a Japanese film competing in Cannes in Un Certain Regard marking the emergence of Hiroshi Okuyama as a filmmaker.
Another clue is we see young Takuya (Keitatsu Koshiyama) and his baseball-playing buddies taking those final swings at bat and moving on to ice hockey. Such is the stuff of life, and clearly the writer-director has been influenced by others, I would say notably the great Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda, who has also proven he knows how to work with young actors in this way and with whom he previously collaborated on a project. Title: My Sunshine Festival: Cannes (Un Certain Regard) Director-screenwriter: Hiroshi Okuyama Cast: Sosuke Ikematsu, Keitatsu Koshiyama, Kiara Nakanishi Sales agent: Charades Running time: 1 hr 30 min
