Silent Love

First off, I was really impressed by their casting. They didn't just necessarily cast good looking actors who can't ac, but far from it. I love the contrast and a hint of genuinity of everything, plot wise.

I love the ML's sincerity and tragedy. He is an interesting character. I cried a lot for him.

It's an interesting scale that the story leans more to the side of the poorer party, afterall the FL is from a rich family. Most plot would focus on their struggles to level with the less fortunate person. It's not about breaking plot twists or everything, it was a good watch nevertheless. I love the cinematography and the showing rather than telling aspect. It's beautiful.

No matter the hardships or circumstances love will find a way! At least that's the central theme of this movie anyway.

A blind woman meets a mute man and together they form a bond thru mutual love of music and feeling of connection in a world that is often unkind to those with disabilities

Of course this wouldn't be a true romance film, especially Japanese, if it didn't involve misunderstandings and hardships along the way, but hey that is part of the fun of this genre of movies!

It's well acted especially Minami Hamabe who does a great job as the blind, piano playing lead actress. It is a movie I would certainly recommend to any romantic movie lovers out there!

This is an excellent film about a beautiful love -- a moving romance between a boy who can't speak and a girl who lost her sight!

Impressive Ryosuke Yamada's melancholic eyes are ones that can speak his character's heart. It is the expression in these eyes that urged me to watch this film again and again.

The hero's love originates from kindness towards other people. Eiichi Uchida's character-driven and tightly-plotted romance shows that pure love means feeling a desire to do everything for the one you love and being ready for self-sacrifice when necessary, even though you think that your love is not returned. True love does not have the faintest idea how the gap between social classes can make it impossible. What does matter is what there is at the bottom of one's heart, which builds one's value, not one's expensive car, one's rich family, or even one's piano skill, all making up the personal, social and economic equivalence. How can Mika not love such a person as Aoi?

As for the music, not only the piano, but the harp music is pleasant and moody as well. The orchestral music is superb!
