Umbrella: You can't always get what you want

This film was directed by Hiroyuki Yanase, who also directed Obsessed with Champon. Although its theme and story differ completely from his previous work, presenting a serious romantic drama, it remains infused with the director’s characteristically relaxed and easygoing style. The result is a distinctly 1980s atmosphere light, mellow, and refreshingly unconventional. The film is particularly notable for Kinoshita’s graceful camerawork and Mōri’s outstanding title and credit design.
