Japanese Movie - 2006
One of the most successful movie adaptations I've watched, about the wonderful world of mathematics and an unusual friendship, based on Ogawa Yoko's great novel 'The Housekeeper and the Professor'.
Fantastic cast, cinematography and music, and a quiet, poetic, heartwarming, simplistic and minimalistic story-telling, without any unnecessary manipulative, forced emotional burden.
A great watch for math lovers or not! -
