Video: Snow Falling on Cedars
Snow Falling on Cedars the movie was beautifully filmed and I enjoyed it very
much.The way they captured the feeling and scenery of San Piedro Island was almost
perfect.To me it painted a perfect picture of what it was like living during that time on
The movie was different from the book, although there was not a huge difference.
The movie for example, had a different name from Kabuo.They changed his name to
Kazuo.I do not know the reason for the change, and to me I really didn't think it was
necessary.Another change that I picked out was that some of the war stories and sexual
parts were not included in the movie.The book gave a more detail and intimate
experience ofwar and sex.The only major war scene the movie did depict well was,
Ishmael loosing his arm during a battle.A possible reason for the director excluding some
of the war scenes would probably be because ofa time restriction.Even thought the
director did remove some of the scenes, I still thought he was able to show the audience
The thing that I was especially impressed with was the flashbacks.I thought
Ishmael flashbacks were brilliant, and very accurate.The one that stuck out the most
were the pictures of Ishmael and Hatsue playing together along the beach when they were
kids.The flashbacks play a major role in the story, and the ability of the director to bring
the flashbacks into the movie made it a lot more and enjoyable and easy to understand.
The book and movie have there differences, but to really enjoy the story of "Snow
Falling on Cedars" you should read the book.In contrasting the book and the movie I
have come to think that the book had a lot more details in it and very descriptive, and the
movie had did it's best to depict the story, I enjoyed them both.
