spicy tenderness

I accidentally saw this movie on TV, so I happily rewatched it.
Wasabi, which means mustard in Japanese, is an indispensable ingredient for eating sashimi. It has a green color and a spicy taste, but it can remove the fishy odor and bring out the deliciousness of the fish. This is also similar to the characteristics of the policeman Abel played by Jean Reno. He is never soft to criminals, and even a little cruel and has a stern personality. Clumsy and cute. The plot of the film is average, without the shock and emotion brought by LEO, and Ryoko Hirosue's performance in it is also a bit far from Natalie Portman. But I really enjoyed the iron fist and tenderness of the old man Jean Reno. The Japanese black-clothed people who were following her daughter were neatly dealt with, and she patiently and playfully instructed her daughter's French pronunciation, so that Yumi, played by Ryoko Hirosue, had just lost her mother, but at about the same time, she got a safe and warm fatherly love. Short orange hair and fancy clothes for Taimei, how youthful Guangmo was at that time, Yumei's behavior, rebelliousness and innocence were well interpreted by her, but when she saw his father changed back to the hostage at the end, in her eyes Tears, I suddenly felt: passed. The French and Japanese side dishes may still be a little too much, and they cannot be well integrated.

    English subtitles, French lines, Japanese scenes. Reno and Ryoko are a bit like Natalie Portman with Leon back then. The ending song is the spiral of the ghost beam Chihiro
