Ii hito (1997)
cute miniseries. The Japanese Forrest Gump
18 September 2003 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
Though my Japanese is very limited, this became my favorite show and I was sad when the series was over. What made this show was Yuuji's country values clashing with the sophisticated Tokyo people. One of my favorite scenes was when Yuuji's hometown girlfriend comes to Tokyo bringing a bag of homegrown vegetables. People are rushing around her in a blur while she strolls along, bemused by the hectic pace. By the time she meets Yuuji she's exhausted from the experience. Never understood what the three women in Yuuji's office were gossiping about, just that they all adored him and I got a laugh out of them all talking in synch.
