Adam GR's rating of the film I Flunked, But...
Adam GR

That Asian Dream of passing life-altering exams. If you're a boy, and particularly identify with that rite of passage, this film is a kindred spirit for you. For salivating Chishû horndogs like me, he looks pretty good as an aimless graduate. Real success is always fleeting. Pretty accurate. Coffee shop milk and bread. Sugar cubes.

This is a nice little film by Ozu, short and sweet. Not one of his best, but cute!
