A great scene this
from http://www.popmatters.com/pm/film/reviews/35471/eureka1/
Makoto's (Koji Yakusho) brief reunion with his wife, Yumiko (Sayuri Kokusho), is one of the more striking [scenes] and exemplary, subtly and increasingly uncomfortable, as they timidly test what cannot be said and what cannot be ignored. Shot as a series of one-shots as they chat in a restaurant, surrounded by crisp white tablecloths, the conversation turns taut as they stand to leave: at this point, their very different pains are almost palpable. His eyes search hers, he wonders whether they might try again. She smiles, her eyes too bright, but can hardly maintain the charade. She hits him playfully, calls him a "monster," and accuses him—a little too nicely—of not "taking care of her." He says he's sorry, as he tells most everyone he meets now. But it's too late.
Says it all. A very emotional scene, and just about as emotional as it can get in a Japanese movie. Had me going.
