Iwai shows an unrestrained ease behind the camera with his storytelling and visual aesthetic.

Gorgeous, poignant, and fearless filmmaking that flawlessly captures coming-of-age in the 1990s, the growth of social media and influence of music on teen culture. Booklet featuring a new essay by Stephen Cremin with prologue by Iwai Shunji.We get a “making of” that’s nearly ninety-minutes long and a quality booklet with a fantastic essay by Stephen Cremin and a prologue from the director. The SupplementsĪll About Lily Chou-Chou doesn’t have much in the way of special features, but they’re good ones. It is a dialogue-driven soundtrack so it is a bit front-heavy with narrow range, but it does open up with some atmospherics in the surround channels carrying the sound of wind and ambience from the musical soundtrack. Neither version is a showpiece, but the mix fits the material well. The AudioĪll About Lily Chou-Chou comes to Blu-ray with the original Japanese-language soundtrack in both DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and Dolby Digital 5.1. The digital source looks somewhat uneven, but that is an artistic, aesthetic choice, as there are scenes meant to be portrayed as shot on low-res Handicam and the rest of the film has a soft patina.
