7 stars for what I guess people mean when they describe this film as having “visual poetry”, if that involves cherry blossoms, waves, and animals made of plants, with
-1 for my not grokking the story grammar, and
-1 for having a tough guy who talks like a wimp, and
-1 for not upsetting the genre enough to have him be a decent human being, and
-1 for the wife character, and
+.5 for the junkyard owner character and
+.5 for how the final suicide was cinematically handled
Recommendation: Ignore it
