‘Wheel Of Fortune And Fantasy’: Ryūsuke Hamaguchi’s Latest Is A Poignant Look At Love’s Consequences [Review]

Much like author Haruki Murakami—whose short story “Drive My Car” provided the basis for the filmmaker’s other (outstanding) movie being released this year—Japanese director Ryūsuke Hamaguchi is clearly a hopeless romantic at heart, making films about people afraid of falling in love, or too ashamed to face its consequences. Both artists’ works also frequently feature doubles and doppelgangers as symbolic motifs—Hamaguchi’s film “Asako I & II,” broken up into two parts, wherein a woman falls instantly in love with two men who look identical but have radically disparate personalities and demeanors.

‘Drive My Car’ Review: Ryusuke Hamaguchi Makes an Aching Emotional Epic From a Miniature Murakami Story

Guy Lodge Film CriticHaruki Murakami’s short story “Drive My Car” is a sleek, streamlined slip of a thing that nonetheless, in the author’s signature style, packs an awful lot into its lean sentences. It’s a grief-stricken marriage story enfolded in a corrupted friendship study, related in turn via a separate tale of odd-couple companionship, all told in fewer than 40 pages.

Berlin: Ryusuke Hamaguchi Shares the Writing Process Behind 'Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy'

Japanese filmmaker Ryusuke Hamaguchi returns to what are fast becoming his signature themes in Berlin competition contender Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy: Odd coincidence, mysterious doubling, and intelligent women compelled by powerful but uncertain feelings. Many critics likened Hamaguchi's 2015 breakthrough, Happy Hour, to a sprawling literary novel (the film was five hours long and won plaudits for its beguiling dialog and finely observed set pieces).
