  • Summary: A Japanese drama about Alzheimer's Disease. (Eleven Arts)
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 8 out of 10
  2. Negative: 0 out of 10
  1. 88
    The first movie I’ve seen about the disease that is told from the sick person’s point of view, not that of family members. The director, Yukihiko Tsutsumi, often uses a subjective camera to show the commonplace world melting into bewildering patterns and meanings.
  2. What distinguishes it are its intelligent, unsentimental screenplay, which only occasionally lapses into emotional manipulation; the assured direction by Yukihiko Tsutsumi; and the superb acting.
  3. 75
    As the wife, pixie-ish Kanako Higuchi provides the perfect accompaniment to Watanabe.

    Charting its protagonist's agonizing slide into senility, the Japanese melodrama Memories of Tomorrow invites mostly unflattering comparisons with "Away From Her."
