Departures - Academy award winner
 

Departures won yesterday the academy award of best foreign film, I havnt seen it yet but I will definitly rent when it comes out here. Anyone seen it? Did it deserve the award?

I posted about this movie before as "Funeral Service Men". Because It has not official English Name "Departure" then.
