Just finished watching 我が家の歴史 (The History of Our Family), and it reminded me of my own family, and how long time had passed since the last time all of us gather together. I don't know how about yours, but my family's always there for me whenever I need them.
I won't spoil the fun watching it by telling you the plot, but I'll tell you one thing that you can learn for sure from the movie: life is full of choices, whichever you pick, either right or wrong, will leave a lasting impact not only on you, but on others around you. So, better be prepared for all the consequences of your choices...
By the way, for those of you who wanted to see but didn't have the time to watch TV for the past three days, don't worry. With casts like Shibasaki Kou, Matsumoto Jun, Horikita Maki, and Nagazawa Masami, I think some fans will soon upload it in Youtube or as torrent (you might already be able to find it now :-) ), anyway, don't take this as me endorsing piracy, ok? :-) And below is the lyric of the closing song (時代 by 中島みゆき), and again, you can find the song in youtube... :-)
時代
今はこんなに悲しくて
涙も枯れはてて
もう二度と笑顔には
なれそうもないけど
そんな時代もあったねと
いつか話せる日が来るわ
あんな時代もあったねと
きっと笑って話せるわ
だから今日はくよくよしないで
今日の風に吹かれましょう
まわるまわるよ 時代はまわる
喜び悲しみくり返し
今日は別れた恋人たちも
生まれかわってめぐりあうよ
旅を続ける人々は
いつか故郷に出会う日を
たとえ今夜は倒れても
きっと信じてドアを出る
たとえ今日は果てしもなく
冷たい雨が降っていても
めぐるめぐるよ 時代はめぐる
別れと出会いをくり返し
今日は倒れた旅人たちも
生まれかわって歩き出すよ
まわるまわるよ 時代はまわる
別れと出会いをくり返し
今日は倒れた旅人たちも
生まれかわって歩き出すよ
今日は倒れた旅人たちも
生まれかわって歩き出すよ。。。
