Cape No. 7 (Movie)

This was an excellent experience - and I state this despite a sappy romance, a constantly-whiny Japanese model, and unfortunately some of humor may be lost in translation.

But the greatest strength of the film is its characters. Somehow, the actors, director, etc. imbue even some of the minor roles with significant depth and complexity. Shrug off some of the corny elements of "Cape No. 7" and maybe you'll see why it's been wildly popular in Taiwan.
