“Isle of Dogs”
Fucking delightful and glorious.
I kinda get the issues some Japanese Americans had with its portrayal of a cartoonified Japanese culture — some unintentionally stereotypical stuff was in there to be sure — but I can’t say I found it offensive. I think had it been about Americans, it would have been just as over the top (it is a cartoon after all), but with a less interesting culture to work with.
I found it reverent, honestly. The fact that Japanese actors (like Yoko Ono!) participated and had no issue with it made it easier on the old conscience.
Beautiful film, though. Honestly.
