Damien Chazelle, the youngest director to win an Academy Award for Best Director with La La Land, has released a new film that has shocked many viewers. Some might describe it as a “vulgar black comedy version of Singin' in the Rain,” depicting the shift from silent films to talkies in a deliberately crude, tasteless way. Still, this boldness and “filthiness” are so purposeful that they become strengths of the film.

The film "KOKUHO (National Treasure)" truly lives up to its reputation as a rare cinematic event. It goes beyond simple entertainment, offering a poignant glimpse into the performing arts. By combining traditional Japanese culture, memorable acting, and beautiful visuals, it creates a film that will be remembered for years to come.
