Stonekeeper's Summer Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #489 [Kikujiro (1999), guessed by LauraGrace]


The rules: I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.

Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.

- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints, the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 votes. Otherwise, add a Bonus Hint.

Let's get it on!


Hint 1: The City of Violence (2006) - Setting is in Asia.
Hint 2: The Hangover Part II (2011) - Comedy genre.
Hint 3: The Quiet Family (1998) - Released in the 1990s.
Hint 4: A Separation (2011) - Runtime at least 2 hours.
Hint 5: Eat Drink Man Woman (1994) - Fewer than 20,000 votes on IMDb.

LauraGrace wins with Kikujiro (1999), native title Kikujirō no Natsu (Kikujiro's Summer), a charming and hilarious Japanese comedy about a wannabe gangster who gets stuck taking care of a little boy trying to find his mother during summer vacation. It's a great summer movie which I try to watch every year around this time. In fact I'm due for a rewatch.
