Josh Hartnett, Shinobu Terajima and Kaho Minami are the stars of Oh, Lucy!, a comedy/drama set in Tokyo and LA.  One that’s as fun and quirky as the trailer suggested.

Directed by Atsuko Hirayanagi, Oh, Lucy! tells the story of a lonely Japanese woman who discovers her alter ego Lucy in an English class and ends up making some questionable decisions soon after. 

Hirayanagi’s film is amusing, smile-inducing and surprising. I say ‘surprising’ because Oh, Lucy! is more unpredictable than I expected, but in a good way, where the story is concerned. I enjoyed all the performances, especially the sibling dynamic between Terajima and Minami’s characters.

Watch Oh, Lucy! for a little something quirky and surprising. Considering the way things unfold, you’ll no doubt find out as the film plays, precisely why the title ‘Oh, Lucy!’ is so very fitting. 

Happy Film Loving,
