What kind of movies do you like?

I like a wide range of movies but recently, I've been addicted to a TV drama series on the Amazon Prime. The series are about a married couple living in Tokyo for many years. The couple enjoy cooking together following the recipes reconstructed from the European history. They enjoy recreating a dish from the famous Marie Antoinette of the 18th century in France or, in another day, a recipes reconstructed from Julius Caesar, and more. Those interesting recipes have been brought by a professor of the European History of a university where Jun works.

That sounds interesting. Are you into cooking? Is that the reason why you got addicted to this drama?

Actually, cooking wasn't the major reason I became fanatic of the series. I've been more attracted by the couple's lifestyle which is far from being modern by rather old fashioned style. Let me give some details: they use a very old fashioned stove while they cook, they also love brewing coffee manually starting with grinding beans. They don't do massive grocery shopping but buy minimum of ingredients only for recipes. Their healthy, slow lifestyle inspired deeply my stressful daily life so much so that it makes me feel relaxed.

That's fascinating. It's incredible how a TV series can inspire a different way of living. Do you think you'd try to incorporate some of their old-fashioned lifestyle habits into your own daily routine?

Yes, indeed. I think my husband and I can take more time to enjoy things we do in our daily life. I think it's also nice to put on myself colourful clothes when I go to do my weekly grocery shopping, like they do in the drama series. There are other elements I like in these series; Jun and Yoshio, the couple both cherish every single sentiment they have, positive or negative feelings over their lives. I thought unconsciously people should've avoided thinking negative things. But watching the drama, I've learnt people need to admit unfavourable feelings too.

That's a beautiful perspective. Embracing both positive and negative feelings can be a profound way to live. It sounds like this series has had a meaningful impact on you. Are there any other aspects of their lifestyle or the show's themes that resonate with you?

Yes,thank you for asking that question. Among the series are some scene settings where the couple invites guests to share the table with them. Throughout their dialogues, the audience members witness how the third party impacts the couple's relationship. Jun and Yodhio learn many things from their surroundings that the audience members come to understand people are not isolated but rather existing in the actual community. There are also aspects of time in these series: how people's lifestyle changes together with time. Actually the drama isn't only about cooking but rather philosophical to me.

Finding such depth in a series is quite remarkable. Have you come across any other shows or movies that have had a similar profound influence on the way you see the world around you?

Yes,I have. A movie which I saw recently on the Amazon Prime was beautiful, too. The title of the film was "My Salinger Year" based on a book authored by Joanna Rackoff. It's a true story of the author describing how she began her career in literature. I think good films and dramas have strong messages of their producers and scenario writers.
