#PerfectDays

2025-05-26

I finally watched Perfect Days this weekend and it was such a breath of fresh air. Its images and feel and its very few poignant words have stuck with me.

If you need a good movie to watch, go for this one.

A Dictionary for the Light

In a world that sprints, he sits. In a city of concrete and ambition, his gaze is fixed upward, past the noise and the haste. He is not waiting for a sign or seeking an escape. He is a quiet scholar of a language without words: komorebi—the shimmering, shifting dance of sunlight as it filters through the leaves of a tree. This is his ritual, his lunchtime sermon.

His face, a canvas of gentle contentment, becomes the very screen on which this silent film is projected. Patterns of brilliant light and deep, cool shadow chase each other across his skin, alive and breathing. This is no passive observation; it is a communion. Each flicker is a syllable, each rustle of leaves a new verse in a poem written by the wind and the sun. He doesn't just see the light; he feels its texture, understands its rhythm, and smiles at its fleeting, perfect beauty, capturing it not with a desire to possess, but with a reverence for its existence.

This single, repeated act is the magnificent thesis of Perfect Days. It argues that transcendence is not found in grand gestures or dramatic events, but in the meticulously observed moment. It is the quiet practice of finding the infinite in the infinitesimal. Through this daily ritual, a man who cleans the city's public spaces becomes its richest inhabitant, collecting treasures of pure, unadulterated beauty. It is a profound lesson in how to truly see, proving that a perfect day is not one where everything happens, but one where a single, beautiful thing is truly noticed.

Perfect Days is a fantastic film. The lead character maintains some of these public toilets. Recommended.

Honeybee edition of Marcel the Shell moment! Backstory. It's day 3 of working with this same #honeybee #swarm I caught on Wednesday. A small cluster about the size of a softball were still gathering at the cherry tree, so I gathered them this am when they weren't active and placed them at their new hive with the rest of their colony. Then I went to the UPS store to print something for my art show, opening reception is TONIGHT! ('What Holds Us'). I look down and see a gal on my bee suit! I carefully leave UPS and place her on my #dashboard and drive her back to her colony. Mission accomplished.

If you have not seen the #MarcelTheShell film, stop everything and watch it. It's in my top 3 along with #PerfectDays and #EveryLittleThing (on Kanopy).

P.S. Why doesn't/can't @Pixelfed show a video preview on posts?

"Perfect Days" from 2023 is Wim Wender's movie about a cleaner of public toilets in Shibuya in Tokyo. Slow-paced every-day’s routine of a middle-aged man turned out to be a very appealing lifestyle. Working, taking pictures of trees, listening to music, and reading books. And all by himself, not really talking to anyone, not even coworkers. Like a hermit in the middle of a crowded city.

Life is like a #cat’s tail—sometimes it sways, but it always follows.

@grimjfoot ieri notte ho visto #PerfectDays di Wim Wenders e dopo averlo terminato sono andata a cercare recensioni e pareri. Quella linkata da te è controcorrente rispetto al percepito diffuso e mi ha dato tanti spunti di riflessione. Grazie per averla condivisa a suo tempo ❤️
