Tokyo Godfathers

Last night I finally got the time to watch Tokyo Godfathers. I had the dvd for about a week so far from netflix and I just have not had time to watch it. I really really liked it. It is a tale about three homeless people who come across an infant that someone abandoned. Of course they spend some time arguing about what to do with the poor child. Eventually it leads all three of them on a trip around the city, on Christmas eve night where each shall learn why they are hiding from their past.

It is a great movie that gets off to a slow start, but about midway through, you cannot pull yourself away from it. Each of the characters are unique and endearing, which compels you to empathize with them.
