Fantastic video! Watched it last night and was having a hard time putting together what I watched, even with the Wiki, so I was looking for video essays and analyses to help me process it. Love how you talk about subjectivity in film analysis and how, whether we like it or not, the way we see ourselves in movies and how it impacts us personally matters just as much, if not more so, as more "technical" aspects.
4:21 what music isn't super great...? 🤨🤨🤨
all about italy chou chou
finally, let's go
Great review. You captured a lot of my feelings when I watched this film last summer. I didn’t find much of it relatable either, but the way everything was depicted aesthetically just transfixed me and I haven’t stopped thinking about it. It’s like a bizarre dreamy time capsule that I keep wanting to go back to.
i also had the same feeling after finishing it that it really wasnt hitting me as hard as I was expecting it to. it was weird, i was waiting for the moment where i would start crying, or be more emotionally shaken, but it just didnt happen(not a dis at all, i absolutely love this film, and i was definitely emotionally affected but just not to the degree i usually would be). For me I think its because of how much more real the portrayal of emotion was. like, there wasnt any moment in the film where I felt like the events or feelings were being played up for the viewers benefit, it all just felt so much more relatable than a regular teen drama, relying on the watcher to look back on their own experiences to feel something instead of the movie creating those emotions for you. also maybe that the movie was leaving the emotions to the characters, if that makes sense. everything was shown to the viewer with intention and purpose and nothing beyond that. i feel like a lot of especially teen dramas of today sort of embellish a little bit in the intense feelings of the characters, leaving no room for the imagination or interpretation, which is fine when your going for that intense emotional reaction but i think from a story telling standpoint it really helps all about lily chou-chou.
I always loved this movie, it seems comforting even if its not exactly joyful. My favourite singer is also Ichiko Aoba so it really surprised me when you said it was her favourite movie hahahah
I think we shouldn't view the extreme actions portrayed in this film that are slightly but not quite relatable as what they actually are, but more as symbols or concepts as a whole. In exemple, the bullying parts are absolutely exaggerated yet I think if they are that way it is for us as a viewer to be impacted as much as an actual person that's being bullied would be. Thus making the bullying in this film not a fictional case in particular but more of an image of bullying as a whole, leading us to be more careful to not make the same mistakes as the characters (remaining silent when in situation of injustice, following the group without second thought). I also think so because the rape scene was written to be longer originally but the full length of it didn't make it to the final cut. It was thought to be long, disturbing, provoking, disgusting. Perhaps, making the viewer that uncomfortable by putting him under the position of the victim will make him understand why exactly raping people is bad (in exemple : "Irréversible" by Gaspard Noé, which is a very great movie that I recommend, uses the same principle of disgusting the viewer to make him learn a lesson). A last exemple could be the suicide that could have been very very easily avoided if the characters acted differently, and what this movie tells us is that now it's our turn to act differently in order to save the day !
Other than that, thanks for this very interesting and well spoken video! 👏
i loved it so much! the way they don't make a big deal about tragedies and show just how normal it is in japan is genius
Everytime i think about the movie(all the time, its a mindset now) i go and listen to this review.
All About Lily Chou-Chou is my 3rd fav film for now it’s so great it feels dreamy and it’s kinda depressing but it’s really felt like a fun watch at the same time

@@CultureDTCTV cool you should watch An Elephant Sitting Still and Sunset Boulevard they are amazing you could make a review of those films
this movie was mad confusing i cant imagine watching this high
LOVE THIS MOVIE AND LOVED YOUR REVIEW OF IT !!
love this movie
i love all about lily chou chou
just finished watching all about lily chou chou.. i strongly relate to all the thoughts you had about the movie!! amazing video
I just got done finishing the movie and wanted someone to watch just to process what i had just witnessed- funnily enough we are both from Hong Kong and you comparing the characters’ lives to yours/being young in hong kong grabbed my attention. Do you think there’s any media (music, movie, show, book) from hong kong that captures a similar feeling/topic to this movie, or not (excluding wong kar wai cus i feel like hes too much of a popular rep)? If not, what do you think could be expressed and unique to hong kong?
Hope you have a wonderful day and thanks again for this video!
You should check out Fruit Chan's Made In Hong Kong (1997), one of my favorite films ever, it's more about young adults than teenagers but it's just as depressing and lonely. Also the film Spacked Out (2000) I heard also explore similar themes but I haven't seen it.
always wanted to watch this movie because of parannoul lol
i was not aware of the connection to parannouls album and the movie until in the movie it plays the excerpt that "beautiful world" uses. After finishing the movie, parannouls album aesthetic and feeling behind it made a lot more sense.
And if you haven't yet, watching it in good quality would probably be pretty cool. I personally really liked the music and as you said the aesthetic is so beautiful in the movie. I know it's late but nice review :)
I recently for All About Lily Chou-Chou on blu ray so I can watch it in high quality once I get my bluray player
Hello! I am from Russia, no one has reviewed this film in my language yet.I came across your video right after watching the movie.I watched your video with subtitles, puffed for a long time and translated everything you said through a translator).Thank you very much, your feedback seemed to me so sincere and personal, as if I was listening to a friend, but whom I do not know about, from another world. In general, the film touched me, it is so melancholic, plunging me into a trance.I experienced something similar the last time I watched "Chungking Express" and "Sonachine." Yes, I guess I've never felt more similar emotions from any movie. I know it's stupid, but could you please recommend more Asian depressive films, it seemed to me that you have a lot of knowledge that you could share. Thank you. (I'm sorry if I wrote clumsily, I also did it through a translator)
If you enjoyed Chungking Express, I recommend Fallen Angels and In the Mood For Love. I also recommend Made In Hong Kong. There are many depressing Japanese films but I recommend Ritual and Nobody Knows. Maybe Drive My Car. Burning is also a really good Korean film but I wouldn't call it sad, just mysterious and dreamy
@@CultureDTCTV Of all the above, I only watched Wong Kar-Wai films and "Drive my car".A wonderful "slice of life" movie.The genre as a whole is very good. There is one very interesting film, I don't know if you've watched it or not, but the film is called "Courier", 1986, also a slice of life. If there is a desire to watch a film about another culture, steeped in the problems of a certain time. then I can recommend it to you. I have recorded all the films listed below and I will definitely watch them.Thanks again! P.S ( Wong Kar-Wai is amazing !!! )
Hello fellow radiohead fan
RIP van winkle and last letter are also some other powerful movies he has made. I'm still trying to watch more of his stuff
amazing review. i also didnt know that this was ichiko aobas fav movie 😳
Is that a Fallen Angels profile pic?
@@CultureDTCTV yup! its my all time fav film
@@jxddii Great taste! Fallen Angels is my favorite Hong Kong film and probably in my top 10 of all times
I also found out about this movie from that Ichiko Aoba comment. Great review, finally watched the movie myself and was blown away.
Great review. Really liked your point of view on cultural context.
Sympathy and Empathy, the dark side or fear of the internet, Digital identity, loosing yourself in assimilation or conformity, life and death, violence of different kinds, shame, etc… Lily Chou Chou has a lot of ideas that are interesting to be examined!
I dont know but feels like 10s teenage are so distant to 00s teenage in a lot of aspects, notice that after seeing the movie and this video
Hi, quick question. Do you have a letterboxd Account on which u post reviews to movies you've watched? :)
Yes I do. letterboxd.com/culturedetectiv
1000 views?!
and well deserved!
I know this video was from 11 months ago, but I just finished watching this film. I’m starting to get more into movies, and this one is my favorite one so far. I do strongly agree that this movie does rely on how much you relate to it. I definitely did not relate to this movie in most aspects and especially not the setting. I did relate, however, to the ideas of people you know acting differently online, escapism through media, and being bullied (obviously not as extreme though). These small connections made the movie even more beautifully depressing for me. Even though I was kind of confused most of the movie and had to look up explanations, I felt absolutely empty at the end. I really love how the movie was set up though. It was very unique, and a movie I can always watch and pick up on things. I’m so glad I watched it when I did as it’s a good reflection on past experiences and growth. It’s definitely one of those movies where I would only recommend to a select few though. If anyone ever comes across this comment, please send in some recs!
this is such a good video thanj you for posting this 🤗🤗
You hit my thoughts on the film down to a tee from the Tree Of Life parallels to getting this movie recommended via Ichiko Aoba
If you liked this, you should watch Elephant (2003). I know it's very controversial among Americans because it is about a school shooting but as a non-American I find it gorgeous the same way this is.
Dont wanna watch any other Review now ok
no way. I also saw a comment on a parannoul video which led me to watch the movie which led me here to your video review and now this review has me going back to parannoul
Full circle
Excellent review
I admire the way you reiviewed this.
Needing to directly relate your lived experiences with a film in order to fully enjoy it must be difficult.
This movie somehow reflects my life
i hope you’re doing well 💖
