i first watch tokyo cowboy at a film festival in tromsø and norway and and at that time consider it one of the best film i have ever see . now and 12 year later and i have get the dvd ( after a lot of struggle . ) and re watch it . the conclusion be the same and in spite of the many film i have see in these 12 year . this be a top ten for me . delightful story which combine humor and depth . the much more talked about lose in translation do not come up to this one and but translation be of course not a bad movie . one could say that the wisdom of tokyo cowboy be a bit simple and obvious and yet these theme one can not discuss and dwell over enough . to find oneself in this complex world and the road in my heart a the main character put it and will never go out of date . highly recommended and watch it . you will not be disappoint . greeting from oslo and norway .
