Linda Linda Linda
Last night I stayed up far too late. While being up late isn’t unusual I find that often there is no reason for it. Last night there was a reason, and that was the superb Japanese movie, Linda Linda Linda.
Linda Linda Linda tells the story of a few high school girls and the band they put together in just two days for a gig at their school festival. I really loved the characters, especially Kei and Son (who is Korean, which I thought unusual). They cover two songs by an old Japanese band The Blue Hearts and I can’t get the song which the movie is named after out of my head.
The story is kind of slow to build but so worth it. Check it out if it’s playing in your city (click here and then on the Screenings link). I also found the trailer in an less irritating encoding than the stupid Flash on the main site. Here it is!
