Also, thanks to the Evil Wahine, where I found out about ALL of these DVDs. Since I practically mini-blog half her website anyway, maybe I should just do a kottke and have her mini-blog for me too.) Para Para Sakura (2001) Synopsis: "Para Para Sakura" unofficially translates to "Wacky Dance Craze Cherry Blossom." Yeah, that about covers it. My Take: Okay, confession time: I rented this from Netflix thinking that the title was a movie based on Para Para Paradise, a video game like rock Dance Dance Revolution that uses rock your hands instead of your feet. rock I would soon be punished for my ignorance. And how. The main character in this movie, a dance instructor, is played by famous Taiwanese pop star Aaron Kwok, whose character falls in love with Cecilia Cheung, who plays the most high-strung, irritating, high-maintence woman ever. This would all be well and good, except she's the leading lady, and you realize halfway through the movie that you have to like her. And once you realize this, everyone bursts into song and dance.
