VIP Class Notes (Jesse) [W / S]

The Japanese movie called ‘The thief family’ directed by
Hirokazu Koreeda won The golden Palm Award in Cannes festival this year. Sometimes I am into Japanese movie a lot because it’s slowly and delicate. I watched 2 movies directed by him which talked about family affection and I really love that. I thought ‘The thief family’ is same as those and it must be a sweet movie. But I was so shocked about the end. This is a cruel movie and it reactive some Japanese reality. The most part of the movie described a regular poor family’s routine, but the family which set by some evil adults and some abandoned kids.
