About Some Kinda Love
The life of a urban planning official and that of an old fellow student, now project developer, are turned upside down by a chance encounter with a beauty obsessed by UFOs.
Directed by Shunichi Nagasaki, Some Kinda Love leans on a strong ensemble — Chikako Aoyama, LaSalle Ishii, Shinya 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 comedy titles of 1996.
