I am going to focus on only one aspect of My Neighbors the Yamadas: the haiku appearing after many of the vignettes. The video above is the Japanese trailer for this movie. This post is also a vehicle for me to learn how to use tables in a post.
| How cruel A grasshopper trapped Under a warrior's helmet Basho |
Turn towards me I'm lonely too The autumn dusk Basho |
The scent of plums On a mountain path Suddenly dawn Basho |
A lone figure Back turned Receeing into the mist Santoka (1882-1940) |
A spring shower Dressed for rain Talking as they go Buson (1716-1784) |
No sign Of death's approach In the cicada's voices Basho |
Fleeting dreams An octopus making Its home in a trap A summer moon Basho |
