About The SanMei-sama
A unique film in which three freelancers talk about unimportant things in a family restaurant. The fast-paced talk exchanged in a loose atmosphere is sure to generate strange laughter. Jumbo, Matsun and Mickey are three freelancers who gather at the family restaurant Big Boy at 2am. They come here night after night to catch up on their contentless conversations. The three of them and an old man eating a parfait by himself at another table...
Directed by Yuichi Fukuda, The SanMei-sama leans on a strong ensemble — Ryuta Sato, Yoshinori Okada, Takashi Tsukamoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2005.
