Fine, Totally Fine is another thoroughly enjoyable film from the same production company, Stylejam, that made Adrift in Tokyo (review here). The similarities go deeper than a common production company though. Many of the same elements that made that earlier film so enjoyable - low-key character-based drama and comedy, a de-emphasis on traditional plotting, excellent acting, polished scripts that go for the odd or clever line instead of the big laugh, and protagonists just crossing the line between youth and maturity. Yet Fine, Totally Fine is recognizably its own film with its own concerns and interesting in its own right.

Fine, Totally Fine focuses on two brothers, Teruo (Yoshiyoshi Arakawa) and Hisanobu (Okada Yoshinori). Teruo is suffering from a severe case of arrested development – he is ostensibly wants to create the world’s greatest haunted house but spends most of his time goofing around and scaring his friends. He finances his toys and masks with a part-time job working for the parks department. Hisanobu, working as a hospital administrator, is seemingly a more productive member of society but keeps the world at bay with a combination of unflagging politeness and an unwillingness to engage with people around him on any deeper level. The two find their smooth pond ruffled when Akari (Kimura Yoshino), an aspiring artist and world-class klutz enters their lives and begins working at their father’s bookstore.

Fine, Totally Fine

Rather than craft a traditional love triangle, director Fujita has created something more subtle. Both men are interested in Akari, and there is some tension between the two, but Fujita allows the potential romance to follow a non-traditional course. Non-traditional, that is, for the movies, but perfectly traditional for real life, where not every crush leads to humiliating disclosures, dramatic showdowns, or true love. Putting the love triangle aside, the real focus is on the small moments – conversations with friends, sitting around with family, minding the bookstore. These moments are perfectly realized and often hilarious. For example, Akari gets a lecture on how to handle the awkwardness of people buying pornographic books, with advice like, “Don’t look at the customer, but don’t deliberately look away.” Of course, the first time she has to put that advice into action, it leads to disaster, and the funniest porn-buying scene since Woody Allen’s Bananas.
