Ep 77: Reviewing “Perfect Days” (2023, dir. Wim Wenders)

from Midday Movies · host Laura Fones and Stephen Frothingham

Today we’re discussing the beautiful, festival-winning Japanese film directed by iconic German director Wim Wenders (“Wings of Desire” & “Paris, Texas”). Starring legendary Japanese actor Koji Yakusho as Tokyo janitor Hirayama, the film charts several weeks of this man’s deliberately plotted existence — containing work, routine, and random daily interactions with members of the community. With charm, humor, and pathos, the film explores the small beauties of daily life — and we share our own cherished routines. Join us!
