As the first scenes of Drive My Car unravelled, I thought ‘Yes, this is definitely something Murakami would write about…’ and yet, it was not. What happened in the film opening, was a very original and welcomed ‘addition’ to Haruki Murakami’s short story that bears the same name.
La giovinezza è felice perché ha la capacità di vedere la bellezza. Chiunque sia in grado di mantenere la capacità di vedere la bellezza non diventerà mai vecchio.
(Franz Kafka)
