Buko-san is here to brighten your day!
Buko-san, the energetic mascot of Yokoze (a town in Saitama Prefecture), is based on Mount Buko (a nearby mountain) and a taiko drum (the symbol of the local festival). He was born on April 5, 1304, at midnight.

I had the most incredible, eye-opening, shocking, hilarious, mind-bending, awesome, thought-provoking, life-affirming, game-changing review to share.

Too bad Letterboxd is down. Now, you'll never see it & your life will be comparatively meaningless. Sorry.

This relentless stream of awfulness means I have to close Bluesky for a bit :-(

Id love to see someone do *that* film as well!
Nouvelle Vague is beautifully shot. It's also wonderfully directed by an auteur who clearly has much reverence for the mythology of the French New Wave era. But the film is way more enamored with the making of Breathless than the characters. They're all so one-dimensional.

Today's films: Breathless, followed by Nouvelle Vague. Like a lot of Linklater's films, one I'l return to fairly frequently. #FilmSky 🎥

A ★★★★★ review of Nouvelle Vague (2025)
