Tokyo!

Tokyo! is a 2008 anthology film containing three segments written by three non-Japanese directors, all of which were filmed in Tokyo, Japan. Michel Gondry directed "Interior Design", Leos Carax directed "Merde", and Bong Joon-ho directed "Shaking Tokyo".

Plot

"Interior Design"

Directed by Michel Gondry. It is an adaptation of the short story comic "Cecil and Jordan in New York" by Gabrielle Bell.

Hiroko and Akira (Ayako Fujitani and Ryō Kase) are a young couple from the provinces who arrive in Tokyo with limited funds, short-term lodging and what appears to be a solid and mutually supportive relationship that will seemingly carry them through any challenge. Akira is an aspiring filmmaker whose debut feature will soon screen in the city — and hopefully lead to a more solid career; in the interim, he lands work wrapping gifts at a local department store. After securing short-term housing in the cramped studio apartment of old school chum Akemi (Ayumi Ito) — a career girl with a demanding boyfriend who grows weary of Akemi's houseguests — Hiroko hits the streets of Tokyo in search of a suitable apartment, finding a series of rat-infested hovels that neither she nor Akira can afford on their limited salaries. After Akira's film screens to dubious acclaim, one spectator informs Hiroko of the inherent struggles in relationships between creative types: often, one half of a couple feels invisible, useless, or unappreciated, something Hiroko relates to wholeheartedly in the wake of her numerous trials and tribulations in the unfamiliar city of Tokyo. She starts to question her role in the relationship, resulting in a startling transformation in which she turns into a wooden chair, and is taken in by a young man.

Tokyo

Tokyo (東京 Tōkyō, "Eastern Capital") (Japanese: [toːkjoː], English /ˈtki./), officially Tokyo Metropolis (東京都 Tōkyō-to), is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan, and is both the capital and largest city of Japan. The Greater Tokyo Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world. It is the seat of the Emperor of Japan and the Japanese government. Tokyo is in the Kantō region on the southeastern side of the main island Honshu and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. Formerly known as Edo, it has been the de facto seat of government since 1603 when Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu made the city his headquarters. It officially became the capital after Emperor Meiji moved his seat to the city from the old capital of Kyoto in 1868; at that time Edo was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo Metropolis was formed in 1943 from the merger of the former Tokyo Prefecture (東京府 Tōkyō-fu) and the city of Tokyo (東京市 Tōkyō-shi).

PLAYLIST TIME:

DIXIE TOOT

by: Rod Stewart

Sitting on my back door wondering which way to go
The sun?s shining on my back and it hurts, child
The FM station plays another bad 45
And it?s been so long since I had a good time
It?s been so long since I had a good time
Never wrecked my head on a bandstand in the trombone or clarinet line
When I come in heat on Bourbon Street for Mardi Gras
When those for a crying just stay behind in the bar
It?s been so long since I had a good time
Yeah, it?s been so long since I had a good time
I?m gonna lose control of my powers, I might even lose my trousers
Smash some glass, act like trash if I want, wear a skirt, be a flirt if I want
?Cause it?s been so long since I had a good time
This prodigal man from Dixieland needs a good time right now
Show me a good time right now
You better take it while you can
You gotta get it while you can
And when the man upstairs he calls me
He?ll say, "It?s your turn son to come"
Don?t play the blues down in old Toulouse for me
Let sleigh bells ring and children sing in the street
And tell all of my friends that I had a good time
Open up the sky, won?t you ride me high? Let?s have a good time
And if I?m late at heaven?s gate blame a good time
When the angels sing I will join in let?s have a good time really
I took my luck, I didn?t give a fuck, I had a good time
