Unexpectedly good-looking

This film was made by two students from the film school of our school, and it was also premiered in a very small theater of the film school. After the show, the film director and editor came to the stage to answer questions from the audience. EDIT: When I posted this film review, I did not expect this film to be so popular. I thought it would be like the 108 other niche films I watched in that theater in the past two years of my graduate student. The films I have said (most of them are premieres) are equally obscure. Oh, except for one time Herzog came to show his new movie. EDIT 2: Some time ago, I went to the restaurant (Sushi Kashiba) opened by the apprentice of the god of sushi in Seattle (Sushi Kashiba), and I ordered Omakase ("What do you do I eat") at Shiro's counter. Every time Shiro made one, he stretched his hand over the bar and put it on my plate, and then explained the source of the fish and the processing steps. I told him that I hadn't had time to go to Jiro's shop in Japan some time ago. He said that you don't need to go there, just come to me. I studied with him for 8 years. Since he only makes traditional omakase, it can not be said that it is the best sushi I have ever eaten, but I believe it is already one of the best in traditional omakase. The protagonist is the number one sushi chef in the world, and that sushi restaurant is also the number one sushi restaurant in the world. The sashimi in the film looks super tempting. Each person costs $400 per meal, at least one month in advance. The old man is 85 years old and still goes to work every day, making sushi for the guests himself, very dedicated. The requirements for apprentices are also extremely strict. At the beginning, I will only teach you how to deal with fish. It will take ten years to teach you how to make eggs. The two sons have been helping with the kitchen since they were young, and they only paid very little wages, so that they had never drank Coke when the other kids drank Coke. Later, they managed to save enough money and they pooled together to buy a bottle. Shake it to drink, but shake it violently, and it spews out as soon as it is opened, and only half is left in the end. In a big interview, he said: "(My brother) now sometimes mentions this matter" It is worth mentioning that the old man was kicked out of the house at the age of 8, and since then he has made money to support himself. It sounds incredible, but seeing this, I finally understand why the old man has worked so hard all his life. The film was super well shot, and the soundtrack was super awesome. I thought the director had to be a little old no matter what. In the end, two handsome guys, one director and one editor, looked like undergraduates. The two reported that they had been roommates since their freshman year, and have been roommates for 8 years and have collaborated on countless films. During the filming, director David and translator (forgot the name, she was a woman) filmed in Tokyo, and editor Brandon was remotely controlled in LA. 200 hours of original video. When talking about this paragraph, the editor added "It will take two weeks to just watch it", and then a buddy sitting behind me immediately received "Two weeks if you don't sleep!" everyone laughed. Editing is very difficult, because the editor does not understand Japanese at all, so he paid a high price to ask someone to translate all the 200 hours of original video. The director's uncle is a very famous violinist, and there is a piece of music in the film that is the original sound of this person. Some viewers asked the director how the old man agreed to let you shoot. The director said: My father is very well-connected in Japan. He knows a gourmet (the one in the film). This gourmet has a very strong relationship with the old man. He recommended it to me. The old man saw that I was very hardworking, so he let me shoot. In addition, the big flower socks worn by the director are very eye-catching, haha. Everyone laughed.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi quotes

  • Jiro Ono: When I was in first grade, I was told "You have no home to go back to. That's why you have to work hard." I knew that I was on my own. And I didn't want to have to sleep at the temple or under a bridge so I had to work just to survive. That has never left me. I worked even if the boss kicked or slapped me. Nowadays, parents tell their children, "You can return if it doesn't work out." When parents say stupid things like that, the kids turn out to be failures.

  • Hiroki Fujita: I either buy my first choice, or I buy nothing. If ten tuna are for sale, only one can be the best. I buy that one.
