Customer Reviews of The Inland Sea
The Japan I loved The Inland Sea is a beautifully made documentary which is really more poetry than documentary. I was born in Japan and I can smell, touch and feel the flavor. This is really more like a European art film than a documentary and Donald Richie is very funny and wry. I cried at the end. A must for those who truly understand Japan.
More about His own inner fantasies than reality.
Basically footages of Japan off the usual tourist track and nothing more. There are still many beatiful towns in Japan today so I don't see how this film captured anything lost or vanishing in Japan. Besides, its so boring!
His narration is self centered talking about Japanese culture as if he knows something about it(he doesn't). He also focuses on women, young japanese women too much making me think that this love affair with Japan is more of a love affair with its women - he stereo types them as docile, submissive and "made to please man" types.
Haunting journey to a lost Japan
The Inland Sea is a film version of Donald Richie's celebrated memoir. Uncannily, the film closely follows the interior nature of the book, and the truly beautiful images match the lost villages and shrines Richie described forty years ago. He sensitively narrates his own poetic prose, which has moments of wry humour. If you've ever visited rural Japan, you won't believe your eyes. It re-captures the whole mood and you can watch this film over and over again.
