Shugo Oshinari, Aoi Yu, and Ayumi Ito stand out the most. The rest of the supporting cast is also good. The cyber texting element that Iwai employs consistently throughout the picture is also a creative element worthy of note.Hayato Ichihara's character is a bit bland, but he works well with what he has. For the most part, the camerawork is great. The first hour and the last 30 minutes are the better parts, while the middle tends to drag.With that said, Shunji Iwai's directing makes this worth watching. The story can be tough to get into and the run time is just under 2 and a half hours. It shows how music can be a place for people to seek sanctuary from their everyday lives. Shunji Iwai's All About Lily Chou-Chou is one of those films that stands out on its own.The story is quite unique and so is the writing, but this film is not for everybody.
