And the Moss Temple! The light made the moss even more splendid.

And the camellia on the moss, too.

THE FATHER
Oh, did you notice? How beautiful it was! (Pause.) There are beautiful things in Old Japan. (Pause.) Insisting that it's all bad...I find that outrageous.   

SETSUKO,her face radiant  
Tell me, Mariko, why are the mountains of Kyoto violet?
MARIKO,mischeviously
It's true. They look like azuki bean paste. 
SETSUKO,smiling
It's such a lovely color.

SETSUKO
True novelty is that which does not grow old, despite the passage of time.

Le Herisson trailer

The movie inspired by one of my favorite books; The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbary. I was surprised, but the movie is actually a good adaption.
