Three Down-and-Outs Rescue a Foundling From the Trash
|
Another marvel from Satoshi Kon, whose first two films, "Perfect Blue" and "Millennium Actress," have already pushed Japanese feature-length animation toward greater realism and wilder fantasy. Loosely based on "3 Godfathers," John Ford’s maudlin 1948 western, this movie, a sweet fable of decency amid the down and out, also has echoes of Chaplin and Capra. Three homeless people — an embittered alcoholic, a middle-aged transvestite and a teenage runaway — find an abandoned baby on Christmas Eve. As they try to reunite the foundling with her parents, they revisit their own unhappy lives, and travel through a city rendered with unbelievable precision and tinted with undeniable love. The potentially sticky sentiments of the story are balanced by a crazily inventive narrative and by Mr. Kon’s cool, obsessively detailed visual style. At the end, the skyscrapers of Tokyo wriggle and dance to a Japanese-language techno version of Beethoven’s "Ode to Joy," which pretty much sums up this indescribable, unforgettable movie. — A. O. Scott
