Is that after the movie about the Akita dog, in Japan?
I wept buckets when I watched that movie.
Buckets.
Yes, Absolutely! A very moving film!
Do you ever get moved by a "based on a true story" movie that you go on the net to look up and read about the actual person/story!
I've done that a few times now ... eg: A beautiful mind, Hachi, etc
Oh, of course.
There is a bronze statue of Hachi at that very train station, IRL.
A friend of mine from France traveled to Japan and touched that statue, himself.
You mentioned A Beautiful Mind.
Were you aware that John Nash, and his wife,
were recently both killed in a car crash in New Jersey?
