Perfect Days (Criterion Collection)

Aging yet affable everyman Hirayama (Koji Yakusho) was content with his lot cleaning Tokyo's public toilets, with downtime to spare for his pet intellectual pursuits. There'd be a wrench thrown in the works when the runaway teenage daughter (Arisa Nakano) of his long-estranged sister (Yumi Aso) showed up on his doorstep, and spurred him to confront a painful past. Wim Wenders' gentle, Ozu-redolent Japanese language bow also stars Tokio Emoto, Sayuri Ishikawa. 124 min. Standard; Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English; bonus short "Some Body Comes Into the Light" (2023); featurettes; theatrical trailer. In Japanese with English subtitles.
