Cinema

It was cloudy.

I saw the film “50 first dates.” It’s a romantic love story with a woman who suffers from short-term memory loss and her boyfriend.

Every day she restarts a new day and learns what’s happened. It seems really awful because she dreads to know her past and forgets everyday her every happy time. As if she spent all her life in a single day.
Fortunately her boyfriend is always on her side, dedicating his every single day to make his girlfriend fall in love with him. Man in love is really passionate!

Contrary to the heroine, we have a lot of time to think, start, learn and fall in love. We should enjoy ourselves!

Il faisait gris.

J’aime bien regarder des films, car cela me permet de pouvoir vivre pendant un instant une autre vie a travers les acteurs. On y apprendre plein de choses et en meme temps cela fait reflechir.
C’est tres interessant.

Il est difficile de pouvoir obtenir autant de reelles experiences dans la vie. C’est donc comme un voyage pour l’ame et l’esprit, ainsi qu’un tres bon exercise sentimental.

Après finir un film, on revient a la vie quotidienne. Il n y a pas de chose extraordinaire mais la vie est comme plus calme, reposante.
C’est un tres agreeable sentiment !

Nice day

On a TV discussion about the Japanese society by non-Japanese speakers, most of them think that Japan is a good society to live in spite of some problems with being asked their personal things.

It’s true that the privacy is officially very protected by the Japanese law to keep safe country. On the other hands we have to give lots of private information to keep a good communication within a group.

The better we know who your colleagues are, the better we can work together. To know each other better, the Japanese give detail information without discussing what they really think or like.
Thanks to this way, Japanese can keep harmony in a group without social conflict.

Il faisait beau.

La plupart des Japonais dorment avec leurs jeunnes enfants. Les etrangers sont plutot assez etonnes car cela n’est pas une habitude pour eux. La raison principale, n’est pas pour que l’enfant soit plus autonome, mais surtout afin de pouvoir garder une vrai relation de couple entre les parents.

Au Japon les meres aiment tellement leurs enfants qu elles ne peuvent pas sans separer, meme pendant la nuit. Elles expliquent que cela est mieux pour la croissance de l’enfant.

Malgre une facon de faire differente, le but est le meme.
Creer un foyer chaleureux.

Star in CM

It was nice.

We see some Hollywood stars in TV commercial in Japan. That’s really rare in the U.S or in Europe countries because they think it’s embarrassing. If you saw stars in a commercial, especially in a daily products’ commercial, their status might go down and the watchers suppose their financial problems.
The stars want to keep their good image, allure and must be an untouchable idle.

On the other hands, the Japanese prefer to feel close to stars like one of their good friends and stars don’t want to make much of differences with their fans. The stars express their talent modestly; like as it were they success by chance, may be you are the next one…

Stars always give dreams with various ways. This direction showing the result of glory or giving a feeling that everybody can achieve and change your life.

Il faisait beau. Le vent etait agreeable.

Les Stars qui font des pubs au Japon, me donnent une impression plus relaxe que dans les films ou dans les magasines. Il est possible qu’ils soient plus decontractes parce qu’ils jouent a l’etranger ou parce que leur role est moins charge.

Pourquoi engage-t-on des stars etrangeres pour les pub au Japon ?
J’imagine qu’ils representent une certaine image de marquee et de luxe.
Mais lorsque l’on voit Tommy Lee Jones faire de la pub pour du café en cannette…
Le but est sans doute pour lui de prendre du bon temps en s’eloignant de son image habituelle.

Dans ces pubs pour le café, il joue le role d’un extraterrestre qu’y vient etudier notre planete. Il examine alors le Japon comme un endroit tres ammusant et agreeable a vivre. C’est assez drole…
