Millennium Actress

MILLENNIUM ACTRESS (2001) - May 9, 2004
An interesting movie by Satoshi Kon, who also directed Tokyo Godfathers. About a young actress who has a brief encounter with a revolutionary painter, and spends the rest of her life trying to find him. Told in an interesting style, with bits of her life being told in flashback, using parts from her movies. Definitely original (at least it was unlike anything I've seen before). While not as good as Tokyo Godfathers, this was definitely a good movie. I'd definitely like to watch it again, as this seems like the type of movie which would benefit from repeat viewings. ***
